    Detroit Auto Show

    Had the oppurtunity to visit the autoshow during press week thanks to a work obligation. This is one of the shows that I have always wanted to go so I was quite excited. I took several photos however only am posting a few here so everyone can see what they missed out on

    Didn't really go overly prepared because just as I expected the place was packed with people. I walked around with my D90 and kit lens for the most part. But the lighting was incredible in this place, definately helped a lot!! Enjoy!

    I'd love to see #5 in HDR. Not a bad set for a D90 and a kit lens. Are these SOOC or did you process/crop them?

    2 and 4 were pretty much right off the camera but the others had some processing. nothing heavy, bump in saturation, cropping, exposure, little stuff. but i admit, i was quite surprised by the kit lens. Normally I carry my 50mm 1.4 or my 90mm but the only zoom lens I have is the kit and I knew I would need it with all the different opportunities and challenges with the crowds.

    nothing specific on setup at all... i typically shoot in A mode and auto ISO. All the lighting at these shows just make it so much easier to photo. A lot of direct lighting was the biggest challenge.

    #5 doesn't need any HDR. HDR is only needed if you are clipping highlights or shadows. #5 could use some tone mapping, but HDR isn't necessary to accomplish this.
    Edit: Something like this

    #1, #5 and #6 are my favorites.
