I like it! The lighting angle is not seen much in photos - Cool look!

Interesting. That big circle in the middle works for me. Others would disagree.

Try softening the lighting a little - not so direct on the car. Also, the dust or moisture on the car is distracting. I'd crop it a little lower; something like this.

Looks like you are getting ready to siphon someone's gas tank....;-)

Created a new layer then inverted it and gr. blurred it @ 7.5 pixels then blended it using screen @70%.
Then I created a new layer, inverted it, gr. blurred @ 7.5 pixels again but this time I blended it using Multiply @ 100@.
Flattened the layers and went to duotone black on black.

I like it. Very nice. It's almost fitting for a TV news wallpaper screen about gas prices in the US this week. I can't believe it's already $3.05/gal in Malibu. It was $2.45 in Toluca Lake last night when I filled up.

I would love to pay that much for fuel. We pay something stupid like 85p a litre, which is nearly £4 ($6.10ish) a gallon I think.

Like the pic Lisa, don't mean to syphon your thread.
 03/18/2005 07:57:15 PM · #16
I guess we are lucky here where I live. Gas is at $1.93 USD.

Nice pic Lisa! It has an interesting angle, and the spotlighting is pretty neat. Kind of a mysterious look to it.. in SDW's version the mystery is elevated to spooky :)
Keep posting! Looks like you're having fun today evening :)

Hmmm.... seems I can actually speak a little bit of greek - but I can not figure out what a GR blur is.....

Walks off scratching head and mumbling "gr. blurred, gr. blurred, gr. blurred"

Edited spelling mistake 'cause they bug me.

But then again, it's not a 40 minute drive to the nearest Home Depot for you, I'm guessing.

Gaussian Blur. I know the question is where the 'r' fits in the 'gr', I don't know. I ment to put Gu. Blur... I went 'R' crazy i guess. I added a 'R' after the g and added an extra one onto blur. lol
sorry

I see *g*. And here I was trying to find something really exotic on PS that I had never heard of before.
At least now I'll be able to sleep tonight.

Efharisto (I hope that really means "thank you" in greek)
