awesome shots! Do you mind sharing some of the exif data for the photos?

I think those are great as well. Nice Job. But for future reference, there is an unwritten rule that you must post pics of the rig on the car when you share your rig shots. That being said, let's see it. :)

I think they are good, even tho WB is off/blue. I like them. Quick edit, WB adjustment, Curves, Contrast and a tad of airbrush on the car.

i processed these on the cooler side because i wanted to give it that oh so cold early morning vibe. these were taken in the early morning and i wanted to portray that. i guess it didn't work very well, LOL. 40 degrees is cold for us socal brats!

But the pic is soooooooo blue period. Even the car is blue-ish silver, a off WB that bad really breaks the pics. I promise.

Here is a good example, this pic was taken in the cold snowy mnts and his pic isnt blue.

I don't have snow to portray the cold, but I see your edit now (wasn't there before when I posted or I couldn't see it). I love both our versions equally! Thanks for the tips!

question, did you do what you adjust the WB, curves, and contrast in Camera RAW in CS4?

Not in RAW Editor, just CS4. JPGs dont open in RAW Editor.

Much better than the original (love the sky here), but to me the orange strips look a tad oversaturated and a bit destracting from the main subject. That said, very nice work. :)
