Definite calendar potential Konky - great shots!
No.1 is by far the strongest for me.

excellent, especially with the latest WB adjustment by DiD.

seriously, very good shot. now go back and do some closeups on the car showcasing that wonderful reflection!

and i personally think it would look fantastic with the blurred movement of people...something like this (also put a car in place of where the 2 kids are playing)

Before


White Balance Adjusted





W/B at 100% looks great!

I like this one the best! Keeps some of the original color of the lighting, but reduces all the excessive orange glare in the original.

Well I can't pick a fave because they're all beautiful shots. It's a truly amazing location. I can say I like it with the warmer tones the best. If you prefer the way the car looks after the white balance correction was applied you could mask in the car from that version so it doesn't have the orange overcast. Play with it, try putting in the whitebalenced car but when you mask it leave some of the highlights with the orange so it still looks natural in the photo.

Great Job

I agree w/the 50% overlay--looks more natural, but still retains the warmth of the original! Great shots overall!
