Samurai, That is a breathtaking picture. Nice composure san.
@planet_rocker. Your fiat rocks man. The texture is just too good on the picture. The gravel just lends a beautiful balance to the glossy coat of the car. And btw , it is difficult to shoot a black beauty. You have just dont it well. The trick is to get some shine off the car.
Well, if i were to pick the bones, i would have had the front wheels turned the other way around and shown off the shiny hub caps. Would be complete
Also, i dont know if you intended it this ay, but for the green fields in the background it would have almost been a natural grayscale image.

Nice pic dude

thanks a lot for your compliments.
actually the building on the rear door is totally reconstructed in PS..
if you see carefully it doesn't has that many of windows.
by the way i have to say this is till now the best patchwork i have done..
and the way planet_rocker has maintained the car i salute you.

At Coorg, early morning. It's good time to shoot cars but light changes very rapidly. I'm happy that car survived those horrible roads there. Jaggu's car shot will follow soon.

It's a HDR process with only three steps.



EOS 1Ds MarkII/70-200 f2.8L @78mm. Speed: 1 second

Can you please give us a step by step explanation of how to do this?

HDR as i understand involves blending of multiple exposure, if then how is that there is only one exif??? did you use Auto Exposure Bracketing.

You understand right and Auto Exposure Bracketing doesn't work for HDR. What you see as exif is my average and it's not right in true sense.

I did not follow regular HDR process. My exposure changes happened in EV dial only. It's a tried and tested process for me and for years.

For Krishna and others:
