Pack of Packards

Looking for some C&C on the original and edit. This is one a took a while ago during a private tour of the LeMay Auto Museum.

I like the original a LOT. So much chrome and not a single blemish. Not many other places can you find that many Packards in one place...

I agree, #1 is a great shot. Nice use of perspective and DoF to create an interesting image.

This is only a fraction of the Packards they had. It was incredible. Just lined up one after another.

Thanks for the comments, both of you!

I would try and get the chrome in #1 chrome-"coloured"; it's very yellow right now.

As it sits, the original anyway, it is completely unedited. I might try and play with some settings and see what I can do.

To be honest, I actually like that about it. It gives it a warmer tone, and that, for some unknown reason, makes it feel a bit like an old photo of these cars. Maybe it gives it a sepia like quality, I don't know, but I do like that about it.

FWIW; I happen to like the silver-colored chrome in #2 better. O.K., that makes one so far.

Very nice photo. I agree with the majority; number one is my favorite, but the color needs a bit of correction (it's a shade too warm).

I like both but #1 seems a little underexposed.
