Hi! I've been doing automotive photography for quite some time now, and i'm increasingly frustrated with the editing process. Long story short, I want to achieve this kind of look:
They have this feel which i best can describe as "light". I'm looking to achieve the light look of the background, the warm feel of the image and still have it look as lifelike as these. The high contrast and saturation which almost makes the paint look "liquidy" is also one of the things i want to achieve. Everytime I end up with kind of "heavy" images - almost unrealistic looking if I play too much with contrast and saturation, and the paint seems much more flat in my images. I primarily use Camera RAW. Please help
Here's an NEF file of my own, if anyone wants to try it from scratch: https://www.dropbox.com/s/06xcn7ho0aes6rh/DSC_2988.NEF?dl=0 (just download the file, dropbox can't preview it)
Thanks a lot!
