Love the bugatti engine, shows how things have changed, when even engineers had an aesthetic eye! Great sharpness and definition

Chitty Chitty looks a smudge over saturated for my liking, but then my screen isn't set up for adobe RGB if thats what you're editing in!

Chitty is a little over satturated but that was by intent (for once )to make the wood pop. Unfortunately it brings the wheels wit it, should look at that really.

Glad you like the engine

Thanks for the comments

The colour ones are pretty saturated. I tried to stay *just* this side of over the top, still not sure if I managed it

You could try selectively desaturating the red a tad just because the eye is almost too drawn to the wheels?

Hmm good idea, I shall look into that, thanks.

Also, what lens were you using for the engine?

It's the kit lens @ 55mm. It's the only lens I have at the moment but I am saving up for a 50mm 1.8 as my first prime.

Ah ok. I have to say, I think the kit lenses take amazing pictures for the price!

Oh absolutely, the canon one is a corker.
