the photo was taken whit my tamron 17-50mm mounted on the 400d and @ 31mm, 5,6f, 1/60

I did increase the contrast on the car and changed around the levels of the sky. As well as some sective coloring. The photo is from a single exposure. And i supose my dear friend Lisa deserves some credit for doing a simular postproduction on this shot that inspierd me.

I like that Volvo safron colour. Anything mechanical improvements done to the car?

Normally I don't like this body style, but that is a great shot!

A few tips :

don't park the car so close to trees, the reflections aren't nice.
use a polarizing filter to avoid the reflections in the windshield.

Other than that I actually like the processing, perhaps it is a bit over the top, but the style is nice.

Yeah its been chip tuned from Autotech as well as an 3" jt exhaust from the turbo and back whit a race cat. BSR optiflow air filter and then there is the bigger all aluminium intercoler @ 50mm.

Who'd of guessed? :D
