Wish you'd have cleaned the car proper

Was kidding - car looks a beaut and the pics do you credit

i know you were mate but on some of my other close up ones you could see the bugs!

Great pictures, love the lighting.

That car's quite photogenic isn't it?

hey thanks, yeah the car seems to suit pictures, the colour is great as it changes alot with different lights

Good effort, a good time of day to photograph the motor.

I hope you do not mind, but I have had an edit to reduce the contrast and remove some of the distracting elements. Load of other tweaks in photoshop.

It does show what you can produce with a compact camera. Well done.

Thanks Kenny.

Photoshop CS3.

1. Cloned out elements such as the parking paint and the telegraph wire.

2. Increased shadow detail and toned down the highlights to bring out the detail in the sky.

3. Grad filter for the sky.

4. Got rid of the chromatic abberations from the lens (red fringing)

5. Cropped for effect.

6. Resized, sharpened and a border added.

nice work! i may try photoshop elements as a starter
