 Closeup detail of a white Pontiac Aztek. Available light on an overcast evening.

Not a lot of time or thought put into this one. After my last couple have not done so well where I have put quite a bit of thought and effort into it I thought I'd try the opposite approach and see what happens.

Shot RAW and converted in ACR.
PP w/ PSCS2 consisting of curves, shadow/highlight, and minor cloning to remove bugs and paint blemishes.

Wondering if a polarizer filter would have been advantageous to kill the reflection from the glass. Compo ok but some detail in the low shadow would give more balance.

It seems to me there was something in the background casting a pinkish/reddish tint on to the cars white body. Maybe a little oversharpened (see trim around upper running light.
