I used just a bit of HDR while editing the image. But this image is shot this way, not cropped :) Even though I like to play with image editing, I also like to shoot images the way I see them. What I usually do is take a few overall shots, a few shots how I see it or what stands out and a few shots in between :) In this picture I wondered before shooting it, what it would look like if I just shot this angle :) ... Afterwards I searched this photo and loved it right away. Just needed some color enhancements :).
Thank you very much for your comment myconfettimoon and ... Keep loving these vintage Beetles! O, I can tell you I'm working on a Beetle project for a dear friend of mine. If I don't forget I'll take a picture and place it here ;)
My Confetti Moon Great color & cropping! I'm a vintage beetle nut :)
