Nice, Actually the wheels on this Z06 are dark/smoked/gun metal As you can tell I played with the photos (HDR in some) and the wheels look polished. The 9th picture (side profile with B&W background) shows the true color And thanks BTW, I am pleased with how the photoshoot turned out. Im sure some might not like the HDR look/less is more, but I love it. The driver did as well ---

so much post process…tone it down make it look a little less psychedelic and a little more realistic + touch of contrast and they’d look great. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD ---

if youre going to do a series too, its good to use similar editing in all of them…this kind of looks like a different color car in each photo Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD ---

Yea, I know I went over board on the PP. I have a few others that look more realistic but I like how these “jump out”. I didn’t plan I doing a series with them, just kinda worked on them here and there trying different thing. But yea, I’ll do that next time. You can see a huge color difference between the HDR shots and the side profile shot. Two different yellows ---

I was considering a yellow vette and planned to flat black wrap the rear in the GT livery that I saw a belle island back in 08’, but decided to go in a different direction. Nice looking car. ---

The only filter I had on the lens was a UV filter to help get some blue out of the dull sky that day. Thx ---
