You could have kept the yellow for me in the first, it wasnt pulling me that far away from the car but what put me off the re-edit was the whiteness of the sky sorry

You've added interest to the background but made the car look flat (IMO of course). Maybe shop in the car from the originals? Or mask the car out for the edits.

Duplicate background

brightness & contrast - played about with the sliders abit

Saturation and Hue - dropped saturation down 60%

Shadows and highlights - played about with the sliders abit

levels

curves

Merge down layer

Then duplicate background layer again

rub out the background to leave the car only


Thats it I think no real process just play about till it looks abit like what i had in my head.... :OS

Ummm hadnt notice that, the car is from the original image i did the background adjustments on a seperate layer, making the background lighter must of changed the look of the bodywork?
