My Ride: 535i M-Sport, Carbon Black Metallic/Natural Brown
Default

Hi all,

First time I'm posting pics on the board. I received a Nikon D5000 dSLR for christmas and wanted to play around with it so I took my car out and snapped a few pics. Basically boosted saturation, contrast, cloned out some minor blemishes, isolated from background and added linear motion blur, isolated the wheels/tires and added radial blur, and tinted the windows. Oh, and removed the amber parking reflector.

I hope I've uploaded properly, but attached should be original pic and p-shopped pic.

Please let me know what you think, and happy new year!

T.
