I for one, care very little about how you generated that shot pat. You have quite a talent and your website is full of gorgeous pictures. Great shot of the Testarossa (such a unqiue colour as well).

Also of note were your shots of the 246 GT Dino. They were absolutely stellar.

You gotta coax more of these photo shoots from owners somehow.

EDIT: As much as I appreciate the art of the raw capture, even as a complete layman to photography, I generally prefer the look of edited pictures.

Yeah henk4, they may not be natural, and you may deride them all you want, but the results simply look fantastic.

The photo competitions now allow editing, so the point is moot anyways. Maybe it will change in the future but zeppelin runs these competitions (with input from others) and it seems to me that things are peachy with the competitions right now and there is a lot of quality and quantity in these competitions so things are going well.

Can't we put this issue to bed or at least save it for the thread dedicated to it?
