the bridge wouldnt be blurry on real photo. maybe VERY little

Quote from Highsider9 :

second try

I liked it

It's a challenge to get blurring right, for sure.

The wider the angle, the deeper the depth of field (DOF) will be. A 28mm lens will have a wide field of view (FOV) and everything in focus from a few feet to infinity. A longer lens, like a 400mm will have a small FOV and a narrower DOF.. perhaps just a few feet.

When you have a narrow DOF in a wide angle image, the message to the brain is one of close proximity.. in extreme cases, macro (pure macro is a 1:1 ratio, where the subject of the image is the same size in real life as the image of it, burned on film). Thus, an LFS screenshot with a wide FOV and a narrow DOF very often makes the vehicles look like radio controlled cars. Sometimes even smaller than that.

If you're going for realism by blurring the background/foreground, I recommend starting with a screenshot with a very narrow FOV.

Hope this helps

And now something completely different ...

Nice. Only that I want to comment is the JPG compression which doesn't make the red look good.

Yup, I used Fraps to capture and it was set to JPG instead of BMP and sadly I found out too late.
Fraps' JPG compression is too low, I'd recommend using BMP or PNG for screenshots, and compressing to JPG later.

aww

It's a shame that the quality is so low... well, you should use the print screen to make screens next time

Well Printscreen makes me paste the pic everytime and Fraps can save to bmp every time I press the button without losing quality.
