Snapped Kris Deering's lovely CC the other day. Enjoy.

Processing is a grab bag of different stuff I was experimenting with- all in an effort to mimick the stock photos VW/Audi use in their literature/advertising. All shots are natural light and various graduated filters looking through my 11-16 f/2.8 and 70-200 f/2.8 http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

3. Need to go back and clone out some of the dust spots from my graduated filters- they're really noticable at f/8 and beyond.

Love the pics. Mike I dont think I have ever seen anything of yours that didn't look fantastic. Nice work.

I can't thank Mike enough for the opportunity. Ever since I saw the first snaps of his in the PNW forums I've wanted the opportunity to get a photo shoot with him. I couldn't be happier with the shots!!

Oh my...just wow Kris

Amazing photo skills mike. Simply stunning!

Amazing work! The car looks like it has 50 coats of clear.
I also like those wheels. I'm a sucker for a nice 5-spoke.
