A simply spiffing runabout; the Mercedes SSK roadster. Perfect for a run in the country followed by a spot of tiffin.

I really like the metallic sheen and colour presence that these HDR pics of yours have. I'm not into FX much...but this gives these cars an added richness. It really excentuates chrome of course and brings out a more intense depth of the spectral range ovrall. These shots would look great as high quality posters, etc.

Thanks Kev. Although this *is* HDR, I've tried to be as subtle as possible with how I handled it to try to get it as "real" as possible. In fact, most of the processing has been traditional photoshop work, masking the background and car, and applying saturation/ curves / etc independently to try to give the car a little more pop than the background.

Tiffin. A light between-meal snack. Reminiscent of the British Empire and India.
