Default How would you rate this picture of my Z?

This is an old picture I got of my Z when I took it for a photoshoot in the Berkley hills, I never liked how it turned out because of the way the sun shaded my front too much, however after messing around with iphoto I came up with this:

& the original

It is too dark. You can't see the sexy lines. On the right hand side especially you can't even make out anything. Can you photoshop it a bit? I think the location looks good, the car looks good, but the photo didn't turn out.

Well that's what I thought. I love the location and it was the best angle I took that day, but like I said the sun didn't agree. I got the original though:

I still don't like the camera I used back then either, but like I said the location is great. I need to go there again sometime for a better photoshoot I think

Actually, the original is a bit better. Even though the lighting is still off, the overall picture is brighter and you can make out the car a lot more. Remember the focus of the picture is the car. If you want the effects you were going for, try doing them on everything except the car and see how that goes. Do you have a decent flash for situations like this?

A bounce would've really helped to lighten up the front. The shading on your car is quite nice actually, its just that the foreground is very noisy which pulls attention away from you car while background sky is just bland.
...since its too late for fixes, you can always do some quick photoshop...hope you like^^
