Are you well versed in photoshop?
Well, I guess I do OK in Photoshop. I'm not a guru but I'm not a putz.

I watched the guys "work it" at car shows. You know, where they are a vendor that show up and get business by taking photos of people's cars in the show. They shoot the car at several angles and then ask the person which one they want. Then they edit the pis$ out of it and make a poster. I was most interested in how they removed all the glare and blown out highlights from the overhead lights of the showroom but I couldn't figure it out by watching them from a distance and I didn't want to ask to see how they did it. That's my main problem. Glare from lights and reflections from other things around the cars.
