A few shots...

•I like number 1 - although it doesn't show the damage quite as clearly as the others do.
I really appreciate your feedback... This was the first time I've edited raw files and this was a new camera so had a go at a few different finishes but wasn't sure where I wanted to take it...Shame about the car. Like the low angle of the first, the processing works, but then why if presenting a series change the processing, lighting etc?
What's the purpose? You delivered mixed messages.
#1 sets off setting the scene, hints at the damage, then #2 is too dark to fit with the first, doesn't accurately record the damage and suggests moody, dark deeds were done. #3 continues this but again is another low shot but a tight shot, almost removing the evidence around it and the lighting is different again. #4 is just a B&W conversion that doesn't work because of the excessive light patch in the middle your eye is drawn to. All you're saying there is look at the numberplate and A1 badge.
Or thanking her lucky stars...There must be a hairdresser somewhere in the locality totally in tears that her pride and joy has gone up in smoke.
Thanks, my first time on doing full raw processing, too many sliders!
I guess that will come with time and practice...
Where have who gone? The owner/robber of the A1?Where have they gone?
Thanks, I understand why you're saying, that the majority is in the work at time of shoot, not post, but I'll make sure to work on making only subtle changes in post...Yep, practise, practise, practise.
To give you a good head start though, what you should be aiming to do is take great photographs in the first place, technically great photos. They should be able to stand up on their own as a good image without all the post processing.
Post processing however is essential, and every professional photo out there will be post processed, but its generally very subtle.
When post processing you should be moving sliders a tiny bit, and aiming to keep any adjustments below 10%, if you find yourself going much above about 25% you are doing something wrong.
Don't worry, its all practice. But a great rule to keep in mind is that post is not a crutch to support photography, more like a little bit of polish.
