Isn't there something strange in the Murcielago? As if it was paster afterward. I don't think it would be that easy to both have the biker and a car that far ahead so sharp.. either you follow the bike, either the car while taking the pic and one of the two must be a bit blurry

I don't think you could touch it up that well, if the pic was taken with the Murci slightly blurry you wouldn't get it as sharp as it is in that pic AFAIK In any case its a nice pic, so thanks

Its not real, LOL, you just have to think that the speed sensation decreses with the longitude... so the street should be more defined in front of the lambo anyway NICE PIC

Actually the bike is what caught my eye, why are all the surroundings so blurry but you can see perfect detail in the spokes of the bikes rear wheel?????????

Well spotted: everything is fake then in this pic.. the biker and bike could be sharp but definitely not the rotating wheel! I think it was taken at very low speed and also the speed effect added afterward.. too bad :bah: it's still well done

Few more from the run - as said the one posted is a tweeked version as is the last on here, the rest are all none-edited.

The R1 and murci were on the same run

It seems to me that to much blur was added and the Murci doesnt seem to belong the pic.

I've discovered what he did to it.

The photo was taken with the murci, R1 and sagaris and everything was in focus and just about as sharp as it looks.

He just used the motion blur effect on everything except the vehicles so thats why they stand out a bit more than they should.

Used the same tool for the last one
