It might have been because we went on the last day of the show this year, but it seemed like the 2013 NAIAS auto show in Detroit had many more visitors than last year. The place was packed! This normally makes it a little hard to grab a clean shot, so I use neutral density filters to slow the shutter. In this case it produced a cool ghosting effect.
Call me crazy, but when you add blue neon/LED lights to... anything, it becomes instantly cooler. This concept from Hyundai, looks like something Dr. Dre would roll out of at the club valet. In fact, the acronym for this Hyundai Genesis is HCD-14; and I'm thinking they probably did that because it's a little hard to slide "Hyundai" into a rap verse inconspicuously.
Call me a sucker for bat-wing doors... I have to say the SLS AMG Mercedes was my runner-up for favorite car this year at NAIAS. What do you think? Yay / Nay?
Post-processing pics from the auto show can be interesting. Certain images you think you really nailed, only to find out later that the constant changing lights or ever present people have ruined the shot in one way or another. That's pretty much what I was expecting here, but this was actually came out pretty nicely. Above this new E-class were the rows of square panels that changed color, the projection screen that kept switching to new images, and various sets of lights that would dim, change color, and move direction. Not such a big deal for a single shot, but it did add complexity for the series of shots combined for this HDR.
