Default wrooom! an abarth. watch out!

wroom instead of hello..
took this shot on film, lens was 28mm
taken on one sunny day at an airshow (though the abarth didnt fly)
now the tech explanation: abarth is Fiat's manufacturer, the car was made by Zastava, its called fitcho (a small fiat) and then tuned up...now, if its a real abarth under the hood - I dont know but sure looks great on the outside (btw the engine is under the back hood - if anyone cares)




and now the postprocessing. first all the ppl and buildings and - everything, was stamped and cloned out. the car was masked, cut as a new layer, had to do the windshields and lites separatelly from the car itself. background had motion blur done to it. of course adding saturation, contrast etc. in exaggerating amounts..thats about it



P.S. file size says 630x418 - I hope thats true all some more neg. points are coming my way - lol

I love this! My uncle has a couple of old Fords that he takes to car shows and has asked me to come and take some pics of them. This is a fabulous idea and so very well done!! I may have to try this with his...if you don't mind

Nice job you did.
I use to drive one of those, but here in Argentina we call it Fitito (were made by Fiat under the name of Fiat 600).
