It's one of those evenings, you know, the wife and kids are out of town for holidays, not much worth watching on the tube, and I've got time on my hands. Thought I'd play around with your image a bit. (hope you don't mind)
Since the background clutter (i.e. parked cars) are irrelevant to highlighting your ride, a little bit of motion blurring can help in showcasing your fine-looking vehicle. Check it out.
Masked the car, then inverted the selection.
Once the background was selected, used the poster edges filter just a tinge, afterward, the motion blur filter to create that movement effect.
While the background was still selected, I also darkened the background and upped the saturation and contrast.
Additionally, I cropped a bit off the bottom of the original.
Thats funny that you did that... I just did the same thing with a old shot when I went to Tahoe.. few days ago I was bored so I thought that I would play around... anyways, here is my version of motion blur...
I also threw a red hue over the entire image... trying to bring out the warmth of the summer sun in the background. Anyways, nothing specail, but thought it was worth a post.
