Circa late 60's Chevrolet Camaro SS 398

Personally, I'm afraid I don't go much on them. Firstly, they're skewiff (some people like that, I don't!) and they're so far overcooked that I'd send them back in a reastaurant. However, the basic shot behind the bits I don't like looks pretty good - any chance of seeing the unprocessed version?
 
I think it's a '68. Out of the 2 I prefer the colour one, although the processing is too much for me too. Usually I hate photos at an angle like this, but it does kind of work. I think I'd prefer a straight one though.

Thanks for the feeback. The PP was deliberate, but I can definitely see what you mean! Are these better? Just a few tweaks on these, highlights are probably slightly blown on the 1st. Does the square shot work better?

For my tastes, that last one is much better. The first one you posted looks like a screenshot from GranTourismo or similar rather than a photograph.

Nope. No side markers... SS with 396 and no side markers, makes this almost certainly a 67.

There wasn't a 398.


It's much better without all that HDR stuff going on. Also.. when you straighten it out, it also becomes more apparent that the location is perhaps a little boring too. The angled shot makes it look more dynamic, but it's obviously just masking the fact that it's an awesome car in a fairly mundane environment.
