Looks nice, if a little red, but still nice good work!

Nice shot but your WB is off. Since Image Editing was ok, I went ahead and adjusted it. It was a bit tricky without having the RAW file, but this is the best I could come up with. It's still a bit greenish/reddish, but I think has a little better hue.

Hope you don't mind... :)

Nice shot but your WB is off.

True. But the correct WB isn't always the right WB. We used to use filters to shift the colors for national ads & sometimes I'll shoot on the Cloudy pre-set in sunlight.
Do what you "feel" is right for the shot.

I like both versions as the reflections in the body define it well.

thanks guys for the comments, i see what you were saying aridan, but the sun had almost set and i had my white balance set to cloudy, then when i was adjusting the raw file it wasnt quite right....i changed it to shade and it came out more or less how it was when i took it. So i just adjusted it a bit to give it the warm sunset color that was showing when i took it. I liked the warmth of it so left it. For me it was the closest to what my eyes saw :)

Like Frank said: there is no right or wrong, it's whatever rocks your boat. :D
