Awesome shot! I'd love to know more about its creation? If it's a rigshot, then that's one hell of a rig, and beautiful lighting! Tracking? Seems unlikely given the ratio of subject sharpness & apparent shutter speed but if it is - wow! Awesome skills! My guess it's an amalgam of static, moving & rig-pro software?Benur said:
To my desktop As I am really interested in photography, could you give a little more detail? Or is is "professional secret"?
Sorry for the delayed response. The image is a composite, car and background were shot separately. The reason for this is to be able to light the car and have more control over the final image than had I done it car to car
Here is the schematic for the shot

Wow! Thank you very much indeed. I really like how there are no "uncomfortable" reflections all over the car or pilot, it is a superb work!The image is a composite, car and background were shot separately.

What I do not understand is the light shot through tree branches... I understand you shot the background and the car indepently, but, was the car situated at the same real spot we can see on the picture? So you took two pictures, one without the car and the other one with the car without moving the camera? That is what I understand. Is that the light producing the car shadow at its front?
Then, for the road effects, are you using virtual-rig studio? Is it something similar? Do you know of any plugins or tools for Photoshop? I am not a professional, so I cannot afford it just for hobby
Again, thank you very much for your answer. There is not many professionals sharing their techniques, so it is highly appreciated.
By the way, very nice webpage. The Japan section is quite beautiful. And you have even Carlos Sainz in People!

Yes, the car was situated in the same spot. Shot the car first then removed it to shoot background plate which was then processed through software similar to VR. The light going through the branches is to create some shadow play on the ground. What I do not understand is the light shot through tree branches...

Took about an hour to take the shot and about 5 hours in post
I am afraid I don't know of any plug ins for photoshop.
There are some other famous rally drivers in there too. I used to primarily shoot rally until I was nearly killed (for the second time)

Second time. Wife put her foot down after that one
OMG! That was you (MoPho) running in the video??? By the way, I found this nice (and little publicized) "official" web page with several pictures:

Funny thing is that I was googling and googling for "titanium silver Roadsport" because it is my first option as a colour scheme and could not find any decent pictures. Suddenly I found this magnificent pictures of a "titanium silver, iron wheels, black package, windscreen S3 120 Roadsport" which is exactly my configuration option It is only missing the spare wheel and maybe one or two black stripes at the front, I am not still sure...
What do you think of the color scheme and options?
