great stuff.

very nice. these are non photo-edited?

they're definitely processed. extremely well, and extremely naturally, but i'd hazard a guess that there's a lot of compositing going on. could be wrong, though.

The shot from within the car is a clear give-away, but imo shows off HDR done right. It just feels like you're sitting in the car.

that's not HDR. the interior of the car is artificially lit, and i'm almost positive the exterior is a separate image/layer.

As mentioned, these have all been retouched already to produce the finished product.

Thank you for the compliments. None of these shots outside of the interior shots are composites. They were all shot on location, but I guess I like the fact that one can't tell what may or may not be real.

Glad you appreciate the shot, but as mentioned this was not and HDR. It was properly lit up with the strobes.

Correct! I went through my hard drive to find some fitting photo, and ended up coming across a shot I took in Chicago a couple of years ago.

So the interior and exterior were taken in one shot, or was the window scene added in later?

edit: nvm, you mentioned you added it in. I wasn't referring to the interior itself looking HDR, I thought you used HDR to merge the interior and exterior light levels.

Yea the exterior shot is a completely different random photograph that I felt went well with the shot. But yes the interior shot was a single exposure with strobes to illuminate everything, and maintain a balance with the lights/navi screen.

great work... especially the lighting and PP on the interior shot!
