    This is a pic of a Mitsubishi Evo, taken at 2005 Rally of the lakes.
    Just tried out some different stuff, mainly b&w and using gradient tool to achieve blurring effect.
    The style i was going for was something like the pics of Katrina aftermath in August 2006 National Geographic taken by David Burnett.

    Just wondering is it too dark or too blurry,

    Thought my eyes were playing up, personally I would go for a really low angle with the rally cars, I have seen some where they were lying down taking the picture or down a hill looking up. Its good to experiment though.

    looks like a macro of a model, due to the shallow depth of field. i like it.

    David burnett actually took a lot of those shots with a Holga. So you could actually replicate the look by spending $30 on a camera and a couple of quid on film and processing :-)

    here's his gallery of the katrina aftermath ...

    There is some pretty amazing shots there. The second one from last is probably the one you're thinking of I'd be guessing, the mustang. Looks like a tiny model stuck in a sandpit.
