New Car HDR (tried not to overdo it)

Picked up a brand new 2010 Honda Fit sport today. Figured I would give an HDR shot a try. Took it hand-held, bracketed -1, 0, +1

Mirin brah! This looks good, and not overdone at all. I think the background looks great too.

What did you use to merge them? Oh, and congrats on the purchase as well! Reps!

The reflexion of the gravel seems to make it look dirty, And the A piller looks like the paint is Matt.

Nice car and not overdone the HDR.

Nice location too.

UK or US? (Cant see the steering wheel!)

Hey N4CK. I am banned on BB.com until the 4th. See you back there soon. I used Photomatix Pro v 3.0

Thanks! USA here.

This would have been THAT much better if a CPL was used!

I was thinking the same thing, I had one too, I Didn't think of it until AFTER I did the HDR and could see all the reflections. Will probably do another one with the CPL on when the snow stops here.

Ok great, would love to see a re-do with the CPL!

It looks really good.

I agree with others, however, about the gravel reflection. I think one way to solve that would be to highlight the car and kill yellow.

You could just add some blur to the gravel area for reflection. Great job.
