5th - Scrap

Cleeve Common, Glos. view map

Mmm, spotted this yesterday but none of the pics came out as I wanted - revisited at lunchtime today and bagged this suitably "Mad Max" looking shot of an abandoned/stolen/unwanted ex-car, torched quite recently by the looks of it

This is my first tone-mapped image for quite some time - I would like to think that the subject matter lends itself to this method of processing quite nicely, although I may be wrong!

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor 28mm f/2.8D AF
1/250s f/11.0 at 28.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Works lie a charm, which is more than you can say for the vehicle!

No I think your right, great shot. All you have to do now is phone the insurance and tell them it's been nicked. Nice job on the burning.Dodging and Burning that is,,, oh this is just sounding worse the more I TYPE.

I agree. This is an instance where the tone mapping does indeed suit the subject.

You're not wrong, Doug. It's a perfect match.
