The above is the result of a passion for beautiful automobiles that a shipmate of mine has. Granted, it’s no Ferrari or Lambo, but beautiful nonetheless. The 2013 Ford Mustang is a car that I wouldn’t mind owning, but where it lacks in off-road capability is a deal breaker for me. How am I going to drive to the racetrack of Death Valley in a Mustang!? Yeah, I know, some people have done it in a rental Jeep Camry, but I’m not necessarily willing to take that chance.
Working with mid-morning light, I set up the shot with a 35mm f/2 lens while kneeling on the ground to get a [fairly] low angle and magnify the cars sleek lines. The post processing is a blend of seven frames worked in PS CS6 and Nik silver Efex II. Enjoy! -DvK
