Been practicing with Lightroom!! C+C please



  Monaco 172
Evening,

So as the title suggests.. I've been playing around with Lightroom after i was given a copy of LR3 which i know is out of date but it's more than good enough for me.

Below are a few pics i've edited.

Comments, criticism are very welcome.

Ferrari F40 from supercar sunday a few weeks back,

The BMW shot doesn't need the grad filter from.the too down (which I think you've used)

Try upping the shadows and exposure a bit too.

Quite hard to tell though without seeing the original.

Thanks @Aaron.. the BMW shot was over exposed above the car IMO and looked blown out so i darkened it, yeah I used the tool with the 3 lines (sorry i'm a noob) to darken above the car, admittedly it looks pretty crappy 😂

So try upping the shadows and exposure on all shots ??

Thank you.

Sorry,
No just in the BMW shot.

Maybe drop the highlights a tad in the E55 shot.

The Ferrari shot is fine imo.

If you want complete honesty mate, I wouldn't even be able to tell these have been touched up barring the dark clouds on the beemer.

Whether or not that's a good or bad thing I'm not too sure.

Like the pictures themselves though!

YouTube has a tonne of tutorials for LR and PS alike.

Yeah i wonder if thats a good thing or not?? I guess you dont want your pictures to look too doctored or heavily edited that they no longer look realistic. Thanks for the comments mate.

Wasn't meant in a shitty way mate but I'm stumped too. I suppose not easily spotted that it's been tampered with is probably a good thing as long as the shots good.

Wasnt taken shitty at all mate, just made me question if its good or bad to notice if its been edited or not.. Its a very good point i think.

I personally love the BMW shot, gives the picture a much more menacing vibe which goes with the car's looks, especially with the dark sky in the background
