    OK, it's a Benz alright...
    The owner may love them, but in this case you better ask him/her...
    Is it suitable for the "Car and Driver"? Sorry, I don't think so... rolleyes1.gif

    The image above was made from this:

    As you can see - it's all in your mind (and in how good you are with PS:-)

    I found out that there are few things generaly helpful when shooting cars:
    1. Remote location to avoid any unwanted reflections - they are hard to clean out
    2. Polarizer to futher control the reflections
    3. Wide angle lens (I used EF-S 10-22 at 10mm on my-then Canon 20d, effective 16mm)
    4. Non-trivial angles, bold tilts
    Hope this helps

    Hi there, I see Nikolai has helped you out with the WOW factor shot :D
    I don't know much about cars either I tried one similar to Niks by mixing two shots together, one a sunset and the other the car.

    Now if you'd only play with LAB to match the car's finish to your bold sunset red and gold - it would be "da bom" !

    This was back when I had no clue all I did was cut one picture out and put into onto another picture......... not that have any clues now but Im sure if I dug out the two shots I used and tried it again it could be done better.

    I had Photos Shop Elements 1 back then :D Skippy (Australia)
