My Jeep Wrangler

[travis4567]

New to Lightroom, playing around with an HDR effect. A little sloppy, I know, but I kind of like the effect.

I am not an HDR pro by any stretch of the imagination...my first impression was that the front of your Wrangler almost looks as if it is levitating! That is a bit unsettling to me as a viewer. I do like the effect on the tires and paint though so think that it might just be the composition.

You said it was sloppy and for me that is most apparent in the transition from the vehicle to the background. I assume with some patience that would be fairly easy to rectify but again, I am not an expert with HDR - the first only time I tried it my image looked horrific so I applaud you for your attempt

The halo around the front and back put me off a bit.

Chauncey,

I like the effect on the car and wheels (wish mine were that clean) but not the halos front and rear. Strangely there's no halo above?

What I think makes it look as if it's levitating is the shadows, or lack of underneath.

When you have a lovely shiny car you need to watch what it is reflecting.
