Next week on Speedhunters, we’re going to be running a theme dedicated to a special decade for the motoring industry: the 1970s. Although it was a decade dominated by an oil crisis and increasing fuel prices, it still produced some of the most iconic cars of all time. Not to mention that the racing was [...]
So, how about that composition theme, huh? It seems with every #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER post, the quality is continuously rising. This is all credit to you of course, as you’re all pushing yourselves to be better Speedhunters. We know it’s not easy, but we always appreciate your hard work. Thank you. Last week we put out a call [...]
Composition in photography is a subjective matter. It’s also an intangible element to any photograph. There are rules of course, but sometimes the results of breaking these rules are more impressive than abiding by them. For me, composition is really about how we all see things differently. It’s what separates good photographers, from great photographers. [...]
Towards the end of next week we’re going to be running a VAG mini-theme here on Speedhunters.com. As seems to be tradition now, we’re going to ask for your VW Audi Group-related photographs so we can include your views and interpretations on one of the most popular scenes in car culture. I’ve personally always felt [...]
If you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise. Especially if the woods in this example is Adenauer Forest, and you’re heading there for this weekend’s annual Nürburgring 24hr. In honour of what must be the toughest endurance race, we’re going to have an #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER celebration of the Nürburgring. If you’re [...]
The rule of thirds. The golden ratio. Leading lines. Point of view. Framing. Many terms which all correspond to possibly the most important aspect of photography – composition. The art of composing a photograph is what separates us all as photographers. It’s the perfect device to illustrate how differently we can all see the same [...]
I was quite looking forward to seeing what you could come up with for this, the black and white theme. As per usual, the quality of submissions was astounding. What makes me happiest however is that there seemed to be plenty of new names flooding into our inbox, along with some of the #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER regulars. [...]
Next week, we’re going to be dedicating a couple of days to what is, for most of us anyway, the unobtainable. For the majority, we can only dream of supercar and exotic ownership, and the closest we may get is through the experiences of others. This is where you and every other Speedhunter come into [...]
Another month, another challenge. We’ve already covered colour, shutter speed and aperture in previous #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER themes, but this time we want you to show us your black and white skills. Black and white photography is often misrepresented as being colour photography without the colour. I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve seen desaturated [...]
We hope you have been enjoying our American theme thus far. There have been some really fascinating articles since Wednesday, ones that should further expand your automotive tastes. For now though, it’s time to hand things over to you guys. Last week we asked for your America, and here are 25 of the best submissions… [...]
Earlier this month, we set you the challenge of demonstrating your control over depth of field. As was expected, you replied with hundreds of submissions. After spending a couple of days sorting through them, I’ve finally picked what I think to be the 30 best images. There was a lot of similar submissions for this. [...]
Next week we’re going to be having a little celebration of all things US of A. Never to be left out, #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER is reaching out to you to submit your best photographs of all things American automotive. Not to be confused with #FEATURETHIS – which is all about your cars – IATS is all about [...]
As you can probably guess from the title, this month’s theme is going to be a shallow one, or a deep one depending on your interpretation. Yes, it’s time you for you to battle with f/numbers and show us how you can tame your aperture blades. Every photograph ever taken has depth of field but [...]
So, we’re about to kick off three days of FF madness and we thought what better way to start than by letting you to get this party started. Last week, we asked you to send in your absolute best photographs of FWD cars and oh my, what a response there was. I think it’s all [...]
For some reason, it has felt like an eternity since our last #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER post. This post however has been a long time coming as we can finally share the best submissions from the Slow Shutter Speed theme we posted earlier in the month. After many hundreds of submissions, we picked out the best photographs which [...]
