Lunch Break - RAW by

You can see lots of magenta, and underexposure on the shaded side of the car. There are some distracting posts in the background that I wanted to lose as well as a major re-crop. There is a lot of negative space on the bottom, and I wanted more attention to go to the car and the mountain ridge behind it. I also wanted the lines of the road and plants to flow to the left of the screen, and the crop draws more attention to it. The color scheme I went for is sea green and gold, which I noticed I like seeing in Markus Wendler photos. I'm going for that "hyper real" look. More of what the mind sees than what it was in reality.
