Apart from the fact that I now desperately want a mkII its a cracking photo. How different is it from the original?

Great composition, lacks a little contrast to my eye. Is this shot with at 55-250 IS? mine lacked contrast when i used it, little soft too. Try a high pass and little more contract/saturation. IMHO

Thanks for the comments, heres the original just run through photoshop for resizing and to turn into jpeg.

Thanks for the comment, yes it was shot with a 55-250, will try what you sugested and see what it comes out like.

good stuff, looks much more punchy.

get yourself a CPL and that will give you a little more saturation and remove some of the reflection on the windows/paint.

A CPL will also knock the shutter speed down a stop, may or may not be an issue.

That was shot at f11 @250mm, 1 stop isn't going to make much difference to DOF at that distance.

Aw well, No problems there, CPL is a no brainer then.

For that and similar lighting situations it would be fine, that lens is sweeter at f8 i think from when i used it too. Dragging that shutter might have some added benefits too

Looks too bright on my screen... again..

Using PS5 this was a straightforward 'Autolevels' then added 10% on 'Shadows'.

Or on this one, in 'Levels' choose the 'Set White Point' picking out the bright white section on the bonnet. Then adding just 5% in 'Shadows'.

Track has a red hue. Some tracks do in real life.

CPLs causes all sorts of peculiar problems with cars with perspex windows - most race cars have perspex side windows and, and some have perspex front screens.
