Default Foggy Days Suck! (Before and After Pic)

Did a shoot today for an upcoming feature. It was super foggy this morning so I had to process the crap out of this pic.

^ thanks.. but not sure if I want to process anymore... The fog was so thick, I think my processing is making the pics look too saturated. May just redo the shoot.

It wouldn't look too bad if you desaturated the background/wall. Definitely a bit improvement over the original, but I'd probably re-shoot.

Good edit, but I think the car (especially the windows) looks too blue. Of course I am looking this on my uncalibrated television, so I could be wrong.

I'm going to re-shoot the car. Thanks for the feedback. What a waste of a 6:30 am shoot.

Sick MR2. You did an awesome job but it's not on par with your other work to be honest. I say do a reshoot. If it's not worth doing right, it's not worth doing at all. Ohhh and what's your gear setup?

either it's the location or the fog that's at least reducing the reflection from the black car ... looks good

I liked the first picture if you could tone the blue/green down a touch I think it looks just right, anymore though and you would be overprocessed. Second pic looks good as well.

Yeah... 200 pics to go over and "fix" is not my thing. Just going to redo the entire shoot.
