Catching a little sun in Southern California
« on: August 26, 2013, 20:56:50 »
This weekend the weather was just outstanding in San Diego so thought I would snap a picture while filling up.  Right before this drive I had washed, clay bared, waxed, and polished chrome.

That picture is great - it looks almost 3d.  At first I thought it was photoshopped but after 2nd glance I just thought it was cool.  The car is just popping of the page.

Car looks great as well.

Well done.

It is slightly photoshopped. The angle makes the car standout but then I masked the car off and blurred the background ever so slightly. Over exaggerates the depth of field and makes the 3D effect

Looking good Sal,

   We certainly are lucky her in San Diego to be able to go into fall/ winter knowing there are plenty more good driving days ahead.
