It’s taking three pictures without moving the cam, at three different exposure settings, combine the three and you have HDR.

That’s the short answer :rofl

Yeah that came out amazing. I love his camera.

I think they would have came out better if there was more light… it was kind of dark out when we took the pics.

The HDR’s on those were a little excessive… Sean sent me the program, I am going to re-do them with only minor HDR-enhancements. I did a few but didn’t upload them… they came out looking incredible.

Looks like they came out pretty good. I’m not a hunge fan of HDR myself, but they seem to be a bit overdone.

You using photomatix?

Yep he used photomatrix. I am not so much a fan of HDR as I am of crystal clear, high quality pictures.

That’s cause it’s a chevy and your tires probably suck. :).

My Max is dropped 1.3"/1.4" with Goodyear Assurance TripleTred tires. I do perfectly fine in anything under a foot. I can do 55mph on a snow covered highway without issue. No sliding, no pull or drift. Key is to minimize jerky movements.

My sig is of my driveway (it goes behind the car and up to the left). I e-brake around that turn sometimes for the hell of it and still make it up the driveway.

Yeah well your car probably looks like a 4x4 from the factory… mine is already lowered from the LS/LT/SS N/A Cobalts. That and the lip kit that it has turns the car into a snowplow in anything over 6". If I didn’t have a good set of snow tires already for it the thing wouldn’t move in anything more than a dusting of snow. I learned from experience. Ice with the factory tires is impossible.
