Flathead Ford....HDR.

That's a nice picture.. Too bad some a-hole had to do a zig-zag down the front of the radiator.

wow great capture!

VERY nice. My only problem is the Glow that is starting to show around the roof. Otherwise it's a great shot.

I think you pushed the HDR too far, the halos are very distracting

Thanks...I don't find it that noticeable to be honest.

Thanks for your opinion, but I like the slight halos as they spotlight the car for me.....I also think to say 'very distracting' is exaggerating a bit

Yea it really isn't bad except for the right side of the image, I've seen much worse HDR's... I just hate when I can tell HDR's are HDR's you know what I mean?

Yes I do know what you mean and I usually don't process this strongly in HDR, however I wanted the subject to have a slightly 'cartoony' appearance. That being said I might try another edit and tone it back slightly.

That's a cool looking car but it is also the most scary looking Ford I have ever seen lol.

Maybe its me, but I'm not seeing the contrast halos.

I did do an edit and toned down the strength a little and I think it looks better as it still has the quality I was looking for and yet not overdone....props to skiboarder72 for the feedback that prompted me to re-edit.
