One of my all time favorites, the S4 Avant aka "sleeper" giant killer. Nothing like blowing their doors off with a mommymobile.

Nice shot! Love the composition and the tilt.

Processing is on the red side - works great for the leaves, but overall doesn't look right to my eye.

That newest version is my favorite so far. On my monitor it's still pushed a little far to the red side of the spectrum though.

Also, it looks like portions of the tree trunk were blurred while others were not. Is that the case?

It was shot with f2.5 or 2.8, not sure, so the DOF was pretty shallow, I havn't blurred anything.

I know I'm pushing it, #1 could use some more work to make it better, #2 is pretty good, I want the saturated fall fealing.

As much as I try and believe me I have read the manual and everthing, I still can't seem to get results near as well as this, even if it is blurred!

Much better - the image looks a lot cleaner now, but still autumnal. A little Levels work in there somewhere?

Oooh, this new one is cool, too. The lower part of the car is too dark: could be my monitor, or maybe it could use a little lightening.

How did you find this weird, science fiction tunnel?!
