Been playing around with a few different proccessing techniques over my uni holidays (mainly due to boredom), and managed to produce this:

I really like the effect, anyone care to comment?

Chris nice colour sats but the shadows need some treatment. maybe shadow highlite filter in PS2 if you have it.

G'day Chris,

Not sure re: suggestions, I think Jethro's right abotu playing with shadows, but I was thinking if it's your car or you know the owner, it might be worth a try taking it to a barren, dry location and going for the rustic outback look, maybe B&W??? At least until the panel work's painted :lol:

EDIT: Doh! Premature button press... Only thought the above because the background's distracting, thinking of not having modern cars in the background sort of thing... If you know what I mean :oops:

Oh, had to paste the URL into another window too...

thanks for the commens guys..

@jethro: i had a go playing with the s&h tool in CS2, but it didn't really make that much of a difference, should have payed more attention when I first took the photo!

@mudder: not my car, saw it drive past and chased it down the street until it stopped..but yeah, I originally had this one penned as a black and white, but couldn't resist the multicolouredness of the car.

not sure what you mean about the url though, seems to be displaying fine within the thread :?

One of the two great Holdens, being EH and HR, (IMHO :D :D), almost forgot the early Monaros, make that three Holdens. So it has to be a good photo!
