edit looks harsh at first, but is suited to the grunt of the muscle car...

The editing is far too harsh. Very nice composition though.

Post process killed this photo. Car mixed into everything. Shiny, sharp... maybe some people like the way it is, but not me. Little less post work would do :/

Its a bit overprocessed.

Great car and great angle but something isn't grabbing me, I think it's the selective desat, there are distracting blotches of colour that draw my eye away from the car.

Interesting photo. Processing is a bit over the top, and loses too much detail on the car. I might give this a 6 in another challenge, but as a car ad its just a 5 from me.

Very dramatic processing. I like how it accentuates the curves of the car.

Knight Rider? Nice pp effects.

Love the crazy over the top processing here. The heavy burning really works well to give this an almost 'Knight-rider' feel...7

im not too fond on the colour effect

Great wide angle, glad you avoided the eye-level viewpoint. Hard, gritty colours are nice but conflict with an almost Christmasy feel I'm getting. Would have been better on just tarmac with a neural background. Looks as if only one of the main lights is working - not sure if you ment that or not

OK, you are going to get stung by the voters on the post-processing here. if you check out real car-ads they keep the cars are clear as possible. Also, you really need to put this car into the correct environment, such as on the open road as this is a great touring car. Sitting outside a house doesnt do it any justice.. sorry, but one of the weaker entries.

great composition, capture and PP. I can't see this picture in an ad brochure but certainly on the wall of an auto club or so. It shows that you "love" your car.

IMO, you did WAY too much processing. I think it hurts the image severely.

Stylish car, but not sure about the PP work

Cool

The effect is too extreme
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Basically a good concept, but a tad overprocessed for my tastes.....it makes it so that I can't actually see the condition of the car and it's obviously not an ad for a new car where you can get away with this 'cause the new paint and straight body is a given.

interesting shot

Really nice car, but sorry, the editing here is horrible. Way too contrasty, and much too heavy on the dodge and burn.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/10/2007 05:12:31 AM
way overprocessed

Nice post processing. Good shoot for a car ad. -7-
