Help editing photo for possible canvas

Something Else · 19 Oct 2013 at 00:58

Hi all, looking to create a canvas out of the below image and want peoples interpretations of how it should look.

Took this picture a while ago, only in jpeg sorry

I understand that editing is a personal thing a lot of the time but just wondering what the more professional people would do with it.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers guys. Ill have a go at some selective colouring.

Anyone got suggestions for places to get a canvas done?

The composition needs some work, the car looks like it. Is about toe scape the left edge of the frame which is uncomfortable. Yu will get a much better balance leaving plenty of space for the car to drive into, so cut out a lot of the RHS and leave plenty of space on the left.

I know what you mean.

I have other pictures of the car but no where near as clear as this one.

Here is what ive done with it so far, any more pointers as to what would make it a better pic?

Also you may notice to the top left there is a slight bit of orange in the background. Anyone know how to remove that without affecting the orange on the car? Im using lightroom btw.

In lightroom you could use the adjustment brush to paint desat over the orange bit you don't want.
