i am kinda happy with this one, apart from the bad shadows on the bonnet.

the location was awesome.

HDR definitely is the way to make a car look epic! haha

it can..

it's quite simple really, i've been trying it today with a bit of help from alex.

you only need to take 3 pictures, one at -2 one normal and the other one +2 exposure. then the software basicaly does it for you.

Awesome! Tried it out earlier, its really cool. Does it still work if you take one picture and then duplicate it so you have 3 then increase the brightness on one and decrease it on another on the computer? I don't have a tripod you see so its hard to take 3 pictures which are exactly the same...
