BMW Z3 Roadster - a photo on Flickriver

BMW Z3 Roadster

            BMW Z3 Roadster spotted near Santana Row, Santa Clara. This was a difficult shot to take and post-process. Under-exposed by one stop to increase shutter speed and avoid blur.

Then squashed the brightest two stops into one while post-processing to make the bright background less distracting. It also helped a lot with the reflections on the car's body. Finally applied 2px gaussian blur to eliminate the noise from the 800 ISO original, and Smart sharpened one pass to restore edges.
