Goodbye to the old generation

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

My parents sold their car and the buyers are picking it up tomorrow. Was asked to take some photos for them and had fun with the following photo :)

Image

Taken in our backyard too ;)

The more I look at the image the more I think that I should clone out the top of the tree on the LHS :S

Basically, two shots - one metered for sky and another metered for car and merged in p/shop. Increased the Blue and Red channels and USM.

Comments are more than welcomed :D PS. Title coincides with my new forum status too ;)

Why would they want to sell it, your photo makes it look like new.

I like the tree on the right I think it balances the photo nicely.

that photo turned out realy well. i would also try to get rid of the LHS tree and the reflections in the fog light are very busy but it would be hard to fix.

The sky's brightness is just fine, you could probably add a bit of saturation to it to make it more vivid.
