My girlfriend was toying with my S2 while I was driving. She caught this SUV by accident when trying to capture the mountain.

I'd just like your opinion before I get to work with the picture (cloning power lines, electric towers and minor corrections )... I discarded it when I first transfered it on my computer (I usually edit my "keepers" right away, and forget about the rest), but it caught my eyes tonight when browsing through my pics.

Is it a lost cause? Any suggestion, things I could try to improve it besides the usual levels/saturation/USM/​cloning?

Have to agree. Looks like a candidate for the bin. If you really want to save it, you could crop very tightly around the unobscured mountains, depending on what the final medium will be, this may work. i.e. in the case of web display, possibly a 4x6 print, but even that's not very likely.

I can understand why you would want to keep it....however, unfortunately IMHO that SUV is very uncomfortable on the eyes...

I see. I wasn't sure too if a massive amount of work could save it. Maybe I'll save it for a rainy day. :lol:

I started a set of photos I was calling America at 60MPH. I wouldn't have kept this in that series.
