December in Wisconsin is a tough time to keep a car looking ad-perfect. So I had to think a little harder on this one.
This is our IMCA Hobby Stock. It's not feeling well. Needs some major, major help.
Edit Notes:
Shot in RAW. In conversion: cropped, corrected white balance and exposure.
In edit mode, I desat all the channels and then resat the yellow to accent some of the decals just a little bit. Cropped til i was happy enough and saved for web.

Not buying anything that needs work; I have one nonfunctional car in my driveway already! Think the shot could use a bit more contrast and sharpening to bring out the details.
Good subject, but there's no clear focal point on the car that grabs my attention. Think this would have worked well as a close in detail shot or further away to take in more of the car, but this mid-range composition just doesn't do it for me. Sorry. 3
You aren't kidding about that...It looks like someone got some pretty good use out of it though! i'm not crazy about the processing - a bit too 'gray' for my taste (i like contrasty stuff), but i guess is fits the theme of the shot pretty well here
hee hee...lovely title.I think this photo couldve had a ton of impact with processing done in color and a ton of dodging and burning done to it...maybe gave it more of that "dirty grunge" look. just my opinion..good luck
