Will this thread ever die. lol.

Read through the posts...how many actually post their steps when asked? Few...

[superkoax]

OKEY!!! There has been a lot of talk regarding posting your workflow! I think that from NOW on...PLease post your workflow in the pictures! Or even post a link to the PSD-file that we can download!!! It's about learning here and nothing good comes out when NOT sharing...It only raises more questions!

MARSHALL : Hopefully this thread dies when we all now how he does it

So, heres my few words about my way :
- some ask if it is HDR - it is not
- some ask if it is few pictures connected together and mask work - it is not
- some ask if it needs good light - yes it needs... im lasy, bad ligtning meens more work, also its easy to get "halos" effect around edges... so it is about lightning (U can chceck shadows under the car, u will understand what i mean)
- some says, it needs a lot of time in PS to get this effect - some yes, a lot no. Its more about preparing picture in the beginning, then to get the final look.

So, if U are a good photographer and can get good photo, with quite good lightning (2 Canon EX'es + 1 or 2 blends is enought if u know how use the light), then the rest is quite easy. Maybe today i will show u version with bad lightning to show what im writing about .
