#2 you can see more.

get both cars out of primer state and that will be better haha

[Money]

I like them both for different reasons. If I had to pick one of the two, #2.

[dustinwark]

I like them both for different reasons. If I had to pick one of the two, #1.

mmm feeling both cars

[Snow Man]

# 2

I like it because the yellow pops out more... unless I'm on crack or something.

[InSepsis]

Use the cars and lightness on the cars from the 2nd one and the background and other processing from the 1st one. Mix... it's the trick :)

[Squarl]

yes, get that sweet detail on the brick and the clouds from 1 and the lightness of the cars on 2

[BRINGTHERUCKUS]

^ yes

edit*
i guess it still works

but to mirko haha

[InSepsis]

Here is what I think... here is the mix of both, but changed up a bit...


The sky seems to be very central, and yet a bit boring so you can always spice it up really quickly in shots like these. Also there is a ton of color cast, so I am not sure if you shot during the sunset or what happened but everything seems to be overflowing with that orange/red...

I see the shat as more of a washed out, not too contrast version with some minor clean-up.

#1 i think the photography looks more radicaler.

[DubstepDave]

sorry, i don't really like your version of this shot Mirko. thanks though...

[bcool]

Very cute

[mittens]

I prefer #1, but I do like mirko's as well. And dave, why is there black spots on your car now? It makes me sad, lol

[Squarl]

i think spots is dave repairing small imperfections. and dave y dont you like mirkos?
the only complaint i have about it is the desaturation kind of takes away from the liveleness of the photo. But it also makes the focus of the cars greater. i guess it's all about what your going for here.

[DubstepDave]

I just don't like the desaturated look of his version. Here's a couple more from the shoot:
