I wouldn't be surprised if the reflective number plate has a lot to do with it as well, especially when the flash is used.

I had a similar problem with reflective strips in hi-vis work wear.

alig, well as Fred West one said, I just did it for the "Tennents"

duh ?

Anvh, I can just about see a 3 in the first one, sod all in the rest, might have to stop driving, ( always wondered why people were "flashing" me at the traffic lights, I thought they were just morons.

No point in me getting one of these fancy coloured K-x camera's then

Ah the "fishy" , love it

And I'll try and enter the comp. over the weekend, I can tell you need the work

I got 765 ?

Better swap my stuff for beer

It looks to me as though there are a few HDR's here,

Some people obviously think they are acceptable

You still have the option to lighten the roof area a little with PhotoShop / Elements etc., while leaving the rest of the scene untouched.

I didn't really do any HDR conversion, it was just a 'lift' the shadow area, to show what most people produce doing HDR conversions, it took all of 10 seconds.

There are one or two HDR images I have seen that look quite natural, especially indoor shots, but most look very 'fake'.

I didn't mean to suggest my version was better, it was just to show an example of what I thought typical HDR was all about.
