If I didn't know that this Mercedes can be so beautiful for real, I would think that there was some prior heavy photoshop activity...

I do a lot of photography. The photo is definitely a so called HDR composition.

I can assure you all.. that this 250se coupe looks much better in person. It captured every ones attention at the Mercedes Benz Classic Center meeting on 11/09/13 that the workers there had to stop the crowd.


this is indeed one of the nicest Mercedes Benz 250SE Coupes.

thank you all

Yes Mr. Rumsey's photos all use this sort of process, he does many of the Classic Center pics so you may recognize his style. This car may be a slightly lighter color in real life but you can see for yourself in the other threads featuring this car that it is still an absolute stunner by anyone's measure. Mr. Rumsey simply enhances the good bits. :)

Not only is the car brilliant, that vide with the focus pulling and camera on tracks and dollies is very well made too...
