Cool Forge Motorsports Scirocco Before and After

Took this shot as it was getting dark outside of forge, the only light being a very harsh streetlight.

Love the shot, and the car...great improvement on the colors. It's too bad the car will never be sold in North America

Nice job! The 2nd shot looks much more natural.

Would you mind reposting these so they are no larger than 720 on the large size. (per DPS guidleines)
Also, be sure to let us know how you came about aquiring your final image.
Thanks a million

Definitely have a few questions.

What body do you use?
What Lens?
Capture info (ISO, aperture and shutter)?

The first shot looks out of focus, was that a result of the reduction process?

What sharpening method did you use?

Was the image processed in any other way?

Rebel XSi
18-55mm
ISO 400
f/5.0
1.3 sec

The first shot is quite out of focus due to the face that it was a screenshot of it, but I did sharpen it a bit using the high pass filter. I also had to blend 2 different white balances together due to the ridiculous street light. I didnt sharpen the background so it would be blurred a bit without having me put a blur on it. I think thats all I did. Oh I cropped it a bit too and cloned out some power lines and stuff on the ground.

I promise Ill post the pics not big next time
