  • A worthy runner up through this image. Love the treatment on this, the lighting is really well done also. What really makes it pop is the atmosphere and the space that it has been given. Great job

  • Really like this and the position and space given to the bike is excellent. It is all too easy to get into too close and forget to include the surroundings which give it another dimension. Really nice lighting and great work

  • Great to see some mono work coming through and I really like this. It is not about lighting, or post edit its just a opportune shot of the scene and that really works. Well done

  • I had to include this given the amount of hard work that has gone into ti with lighting and processing. It is a great lighting shot and I like the stance and shooting position on this. Well done

  • I spent quite a lot of time making this shot perfect. Simple, clean and I just love side shots like this one. Amazing car at the right time in the right place. Each of my photoshoots contains at least a couple of straight shots like this one. This picture was taken with Canon 5D mk3, 24-70L lens, one softbox above the car. Thank you for the feedback and MoE, Tim!

  • Nice 'editorial' style shot with lost of atmosphere and that has not been over processed. I like the fact that most items have been kept in and it works as an image, well done

  • I'm Luca Danilo Orsi and I took this picture during the last race of "CARRECA CAP ITALY 2017" on the Monza Circuit. I used a Nikon D800 with a Tamron G2 70-200 F2.8 at 200mm, iso 400, f2.8, 1/800. I used Lightroom for post-production.

  • Great shot that just had to be included. I love the thought behind this on the angle and viewpoint for the shot and the lighting is great too. Using a soft box is always great but you need to be careful with those creases off the skin of the box showing through, maybe next time iron the skin literally before the shoot ;)
