how you separate the car from the back?

your car in the photo is like a drawing...

 

[grrr]

simo,
1st one is very close to original, except i have reduce saturation in Cyan in Camera Raw due to windows were green - became neutral grey.
I didn't separate car from back ground, maybe it's because of the color on edges? (my red on grey back, your grey on grey back)
Or one more theory - it's a lens - i used 70-200 2.8 on it.

I just looking for some style.

One more sample with Bleech bypass filter:

Before:

After:

My point in clio was background i wanted get it very detailed and burned in white, but i don't like the car on 4. - try to get some brightness on it back. And i don't like vignetting any more

in the second picture the shutter is like a drawing..

do you use High pass?


and polarized filter on your lenses?

 

[simoxmino]

sorry for the ot.. but it is interesting..



and with hight pass

 

[grrr]

70-200 was without filter at all (not mine)
The second was with harder shadows over mask, as for the sample can give you a link
