[QUOTE="Rexer John, post: 129919, member: 12691"] Just had another look at this one. [COLOR=#999999][FONT=Arial]Settings: [/FONT][/COLOR][URL="http://www.flickr.com/photos/94004028@N04/8587169112/meta/in/photostream"]1/1000 ƒ/5.6 ISO100 300 mm[/URL] shutter priority. A slower shutter speed would have showed more tyre blur but as the ISO is already at minimum, that would mean using a smaller aperture (bigger number) which increases depth of field. So, you have to chose which you want, minimum depth of field or slow shutter, you can't have both unless you have an ND filter of the right darkness. You chose a hard subject, lol. You can crop [U]some[/U] photos and lose the fake vignette (but if you like it, keep it). With some better post processing you have some nice pictures. I would do some fake blurring on tyres and wheels to be honest but that would upset the purists that think the shot should be right out of the camera, it's probably not something you can do in lightroom though. Why not try reworking one or two of your favourite pics and see how that goes before doing the rest. You definitely have some nice pics there just waiting for that little extra to bring the best out of them. [/QUOTE]
