Let me know what you all think.

i like it i just might add a little vinetteing around the edges, or maybe darken the pavement a tad... it looks great, and has a nice feel to it, but something about the lightness of the pavement in contrast to the car, and sand seems a bit off? I also like the reflection of the sky in the side windows of the original. and being that you enhanced the reflection on the door panel, i would think the sky in the windows from the original should remain? (my personal opinion obviously)

looks great though :thumbup:

Yeah trying some new stuff it is kind of tough. The pictures i was working with are pretty tough. The original is actually another picture totally, the re edit is a bled of another series when the polarizer was in a different spot. I guess i could do some blending with it I will work on that later tho... late for work as always.

definitely stepping it up! and you can tell it's a composite of a few pics by the people in the background... looks like 3-4 pics? I think you got it down good, just minor tweaking and it'll be locked in.

i think it went from meh to "yo i'll buy that pic off you".

talk about a world of difference. very nicely done.

HDR from a RAW image?

Awesome job Barry. Makes me realize that my PSing skills are not so good.

Good job on almost making an STi actually look good :lol: :-p (I kid, I kid :) )

I left the people i think they are cool lol.

What did you do?

From your comments, it seems like different use of a CPL filter? Did you just blend together the interesting parts?

Barry I think that it looks amazing...do you have it in a high resolution so that
I can make a big print of it, frame it and hang it in my living room at my apartment?

I love the HDR look. But it bothers me that the horizon(where the ppl are) isnt straight.

Yeah let me work on it alittle more before you do anything like that lol.

i like it how it is!

thats the funny thing, if you only saw the orig pic you'd be like, yea i like it, but now you see it enhanced and you're like WOW i love it. But let barry tweak it a bit more and you'll be like let's f23k!:wink:

Makes me realise that I know nothing about software. Looks fantastic man!!

not quite worth starting a new thread over, but on the same subject...

The color is better in the first picture for the car paint.

the original is better, too much noise in the blue paint on the second

yeah i've been having trouble controlling sections of the photo, still messing with it... thats the 3rd revision, ha. i agree about the color of the car though for sure...

Everything is better in the re edit bryan except the car, the building and the sky look awesome.
