Why are there so few car photographs?

Took a few of the old boat down the beach. Think I need to make them more contrasty though as they dont 'ping' much. I just wanted to avoid clipping and losing the lovely clouds and making things look a bit more filmic than electronic. Maybe drop the luminance first and then push the contrast a bit more?

Nice Boat Ken. I reckon there's plenty of scope to whack up the contrast without losing the sky Another greeny fave :

I think you are right mate - pushed it a bit below but kept it subtle and 'cinematic'. Wish I could move the vignette to the right a bit. Doesn't seem to be any way to do that in Camera RAW?

Hmm - the only way I know of doing it would be using something like Colour Efex which is part of Google's Nik Collection. I use it as a plug-in for Photoshop Elements (cost £95). There may well be other ways though!

You could use the radial filter - furthest to the right at the top of the window, just a case of placing it where you want (make sure you select outside) then adjusting the exposure sliders
Getting out and about with my new 24-70 2.8. Really loving it, although it's slightly showing up my old 5D!

What's SO?!
Standing order!LOL - sorry a typo. Its SOOOOO not F2.8 all the way - its at least half a stop down at 70mm
I'm actually looking at the Canon 24-105 F4 - seems to be a good buy at about £500 for a full frame L lens - our 24-70 F2.8 is triple!
You might get one for something much closer to £400 these days - there seem to be plenty out there liberated from Kit systems.
