[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is an antique fire truck that my neighbor has parked on his lot. I have no idea how old this truck is but I know it's really old. His son takes it to different car shows in the area.

I used 5 different exposures created in Lightroom to come up with this HDR. I am still working on my HDR skills so suggestions for improvements are most welcome. I must say this was fun to shoot and to work on. Have a great weekend and thanks for viewing.

Regards,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
Very nice tone mapping to produce this wonderful looking HDR. The colours look so rich and inviting, I really like the POV you opted for. This wouldn't look anywhere near the same if it was parked on the street, the farm and rural feel really add to this scene in my opinion. Great use of the polarizing filter too, looks like it has worked wonders. Can't see any signs of haloing, and the exposure looks balanced throughout. Impressive job.

TFS,
Scott.

Hi Kevin

Thanks for joining in the Friday theme. Good sharpness & framing, although I'd cut back a little on the saturation. Excellent light contrasts, & pov on the old car & a good entry in the theme. I love the wideangled reflection in the front bumbper bar. Tfs!

Hello Kevin,
Well saturated colors and eye catching contrast o-f red with brillant sky. I like it.
