Post The Best Pictures of Your Mazda

Nice motion there, altspace. Its hard getting that right, especially if there is a reflection visible. I can never get the reflection to blur properly.

I've seen a technique where you take two pictures: one with the object and one without. If you are careful not to move the camera you can blur the background-only shot and mask off the subject in the second and layer them to montioney perfection. I've only ever tried this with a desk chain in my apartment, but the process worked pretty well.

Thanks and great ideas. It was a quick job to get the effect. To the not so trained eye it works. (sssh)
 
You can also just use the rubber stamp tool to make up the background that might exist behind the subject. I do that all the time. Its easy for the road and trees but more difficult if there are recognizable objects...but then again, you are only going to blur it so who cares.
 
There used to be another site that offered better rigs with a much better price, plus a lot more rigs. But I can't find the link on my comp.
 
I was going through some old pictures from 2005 looking for a new wallpaper and thought I'd post them here.
