Jowett Jupiter

This gorgeous car caught my eye during a visit to a custom car show held in Ripon, Yorkshire (England). However, on viewing the RAW image on my computer the car looked kind of flat and ordinary, certainly not how it looked in the viewfinder. Also there was a lot of clutter in the background; people, other cars and a tent. Time for some serious Photoshoping....!!

My first step was to get rid of the background clutter, then I tried various preset filters in Topaz Adjust. 'Spicify' seemed to give the best look, but was a little too strong so I took the opacity of the layer down. After tweaking the saturation, contrast and sharpness in Photoshop CS5 I finished up with an image that had the WOW factor I saw on the day.



other sizes: small medium large original auto
