me and jason tried it at night, its so hard you need some serious camera equipment for that to look good. I dont have that at the moment but soon i will.....

gary dude yours isnt finished i just played around a little its not final.

i took my pic on the top of south coast cus the sunset was real nice.

Hey Jordan what did you do there did you go to photoshop and then change the saturation?

my fiance was talking about that we should take pics out there. what time you looking at heading out there?

was thinking daytime for the sign as I figured it would be hard for night shots. plus everyone does night shots of the sign so figured day would be a little different

went in photoshop

opened the image, then went

image---adjustments---selective color----dropdown menu and pick "yellows" with the yellow box---then do -100% to the yellow bar.

lemme know if this helps.

mike chack these out
i like this one but the more i seem to play with the program the better i get the pics

i just edited it on photoshop after what jordan said to do with the yellows so i did that with every pic, all 11 of them then merged them all onto photmatix and played around with the settings and the went back onto photoshop and tweaked with a few things and turned the other side of the luxor light on soooooonnnnn

I like that shot - it look great- It's a white car after all. Luv the way the City Center light is reflecting off the car and the Luxor light give it the color contrast.
