Shot an old friend's Subaru Impreza recently. As it was getting later in the day a few of the shots ended up with some very bright, low sun highlighting areas of the buildings and some dark shadows out of the light. I fought in Lightroom for a while trying to balance it out but it wasn't working, so I decided to take a different approach - I increased highlights, decreased saturation, cranked up the contrast and clarity sliders a bit and added some heavy vignette, to give a sort of cinematic look in a gritty industrial environment. Open to constructive criticism, how did I do?
