I like that, Sury. Works really well on the shiny vehicles. Great tip! :)

Well, you like to experiment Sury and it certainly pays off.

Tennis anyone?

Interesting results, Sury. After the process, the middle car almost looks custom-taylored...I don't know if you know what I mean but it looks almost 'stitched with hand' into that frame. I mean it as a compliment. :)

Thanks for sharing.

Couple of messages packed into one photo there JBTaylor. :)

No tennis for me today, thank you. The situation looks far too Black or White..like in Life or Death cases. : )

Thanks for sharing,

The holidays are a great course of subject matter. Don't usually do people but when family comes to town, we do what we have to do.

4 Ladies...sort of.
RX1 again.

One of the outcomes of a holiday is memories made, and this one fits the bill to a "T".
The "aaw" moments come few years from now when you will be so happy you captured
the moment "then". Very nicely captured. Truly a keeper.

Thank you, JB, Andy and Yildiz. And yes, Yildiz, if it looks like having more of the "oomph", the
treatment focused on the middle car when the graduated filter treatment is applied to the image
and since the car certainly draws your attention (other two being lesser of black) it does look like
it has bee superimposed (though I did not look at it that way till you mentioned it). If not anything,
these lessons gave me a better appreciation for LR than I had before.

How is that lens working out? Nice shot btw, and a closer image would have been nicer. But we can't tell that to
birds, can we? :D

It appears that the lens is soft at 600mm. I had read that and so far, the testing indicates that it is true.

Hi all,
I'm new here and this is my first post. My name is Garry and I live in a small UK coastal town called Hythe. The image is from a very unique place about 15 miles from where I live called Dungeness.
Thank you for looking
Happy New Year
Garry

Lovely shots Ossie. I loved the third one most.
Welcome, Garry. Nice shot indeed with those ominous clouds.
Look forward to many more contributions. You will find the crowd
very friendly here.....Closest I come to Dungeness is crabs. I wonder
if it is just a coincidence.
