I see MD plates. Where were you in MD, or did the Bentley just happen to be from MD? Can you also share how you cleaned the pic up? It is much clearer now...

yess this was taken in maryland specificaly in clarksville maryland about 2 miles from river hill high school. I too am from maryland.

i made adjustments with brightness and contrast in cs2 i dnt remember exactilly the number i changed it too. it took about a a minut or two. it seemed to work really well with eliminating the window glare and brightness.

I wonder what show room this was bought from. Wouldn't it be nice to photograph one of these beauties under ideal conditions.

great recovery - not sure what else you could do... maybe an abstract crop to highlight some of the car's curvy features, rather than having the rest of the background distracting.
