I am getting Gary a canvas print of him autocrossing as part of his Christmas present. The other part is a combination of a Christmas and Valentines present in the form of paying part for his new race tires for next season! But I cant decide which one to get! I am debating on if I should get one larger (thinking 18x24) or 2 smaller ones (11x14) But I cant decide which picture(s) I like the most! So I was wondering if you guys could give me some help!
Which 2 of these are your favorites?

Pic 1

Pic 2 (I think this one may be one of my favorites just because its unique)

Pic 3

Pic 4 (another one of my favorites because of the unique angle)

Pic 5

Pic 6

Pic 7 (may be my favorite action shot)
I have more from the past weekend but they arent loaded and water marked on this site yet!
So which of these do you like?

I voted for #2, but I also like #3 #5 #7.

I voted for #2 because I think its a nice clean shot- no people in the background just him and the car (and closeup).

I like #2 and #5 the best. Number 4 is REALLY busy in the background and no depth of field makes it kind of boring, and number 7 would be neat if it weren't for the person standing there. Number one also b/c of the people in the background and all the cones, stop sign, and street in the background...too busy again, even though there is more depth of field in this one.

(I know you didn't ask, but....you should make your watermark bigger and put it OVER the main subject of the picture. Where you have your watermark now, anyone that knows anything about Photoshop (including me) would EASILY be able to remove it and claim the picture as their own. A watermark is meant to prevent someone from stealing a picture, but yours doesn't. Just a suggestion!

thanks, these all go onto our personal gallery that we just share with the fellow racers (and only the ones that talk on our forums) so I'm not as worried about them, But yeah I agree it does need to be a bit bigger! Although these are actually the firsts ones I have watermarked. The ones on my site to sell (which is whats on my business cards) actually has PROOF rather large across the middle of the picture! Theres going to be a lot of me playing around with different styles over the next few months! Haha!


Thanks for all of your input guys! I am really loving 2! Although I am going to wait and not order it until after our huge event on the 20th of Nov just to be sure!
