I wish I could blow out highlights like that Johnny.

Only kidding, nice shot, so did you turn the polarizer on this one or not?

[johnnynumfiv]

Thanks 2ndC.
I don't know about the polarizer, I just shot it the way it was.

Except that to not blow out the sky and keep the car as well as exposed as it is, you'd probably need an Grad ND filter

Yeah but not to people who do't have a clue what HDR is!

Hey Pentax boy...

Now I understand why some say that art is not a product for the masses.
