Thanks Graywolf. And thanks to all who had a look. I thought some might opt for 
the original, but thus far no one had. Excellent.

fantastic work on photoshopping that picture, it looks awesome.  I'd
expect to see this in a car magazine, I'll be keeping an eye out for
your name in Car and Driver

I preferred the original, though it would have been better if it had been 
done right in camera, but I am finding more and more that there is not much 
point in expressing contrary views on this forum, especially when it 
involves photographic techniques that can be fixed in Photoshop.

The CEO of the agency I'm working for owns a 1955 Chrysler 300C -- a
perfect 300C. Last Saturday at the Dream Cruise I was hanging out in
a parking lot and watching the cars drive by when I spotted the big
guy's 300C coming down Woodward. I attempted a pan, but the car was
moving very slowly, and I couldn't get a shutter speed slower than
1/30th in the hazy sunlight. (Should have had an ND filter mounted.)
Anyway, I got a halfway decent pic but without any sense of speed and
way too much detail in the background. What's worse, the hood was
burned out and blending into a white car in another lane. So I
PhotoShopped it. Here are the original and the retouched version for
comparison. I made him a print. He loves it. Since I'm a day-to-day
contract worker, love is a good thing.  ISO 100, f22 @1/30th DA
17-45/4 at 24mm.

That's a pretty car, Paul.  And a nice photo, too.  The 'shop job looks 
good.

The new cars are probably better engineered, more reliable, and more 
efficient, but the old ones have character.  With all the new-fangled 
crap they pour into them these days I still just want one thing:  a 
rolling sofa.  I don't want to feel the road anymore.  At all.  My 
Grandfather had a 1968 Electra until the mid-90s.  I have yet to ride in 
anything newer that feels half as comfy.

Re: PESO: 'Shopping for the Boss

[Bob Sullivan]

Paul,
Nice shot and better photoshop job.
I wonder if the boss would have appreciated more blur and less sharpness.
I like the feel of the blurred photos, but it is a point of view.
The second picture he could hang on the wall and show off his car!
Regards, Bob S.

PS - Scott, if you want a rolling sofa, try a Mercury Marque.

I already liked the original one, but the photoshopped looks better.
Nice shot  PS work.

My Mom had an 88 Marquis, and after it was totaled (it actually drove 
perfectly straight with the trunk hanging a foot and a half off the 
right side of the car) she bought a 96.  The 88 had a decent ride.  The 
96 not so much.  Maybe I should just pony up for a Rolls.  ;)
