The image has been created by pulling back the the saturation and reducing the vibrancy. This creates some nice subtle tones.

I darkened out the other cars in the parking area with a gradient filter, I think this cleans up the image

This uses some fancy colourised gradient filters to light the road and sky. I have also used the clarity tool to selectively blur the headlights

I have added shape to this image with Lightrooms gradient filters.
Free Photoshop and Lightroom Texture.
These types of textures are great to add texture to an image in Photoshop. You can then bring the composite image back into Lightroom and finish the processing.CLICK HERE to learn more about Adobe Lightroom check out my LIGHTROOM TUTORIAL.

Grassy Grave.
In this image I have used various gradient filters to flatten the image and make it feel more abstract.

Monet's Lost Car. Found in Lightroom.
Lightroom popped the detail in this image. One technique that I have been experimenting with is reversing the clarity on a gradient filter. This is great for softening the focus on areas that you want to create a bit more depth of field. This in turn makes the detailed areas appear more clear.

Lightroom Hedge
This is what I'm all about, strong design, limited colour and an image that twinkles when you shake it on your iPhone.

Lightroom Fill Light: New York Subway Framing.

It took a while before this image really came to life, in the first instance I never saw the cool pipe work and textures on the concrete areas - as it was black and under exposed. I fixed this by using a combination of gradient filters and fill lighting to bring out the detail. I love the final result.

Lightroom Colour Graduated Filters: Melbourne Graffiti Lane
CLICK HERE to learn more about Adobe Lightroom. To learn more about how I process images check out my Lightroom Tutorial and Lightroom Presets. Melbourne Graffiti Lane, originally uploaded by cubagallery.
With this image I have added a blue/green tint to a graduated filter coming down from the top. This effect gives a bit of colour to the white buildings and makes it feel more dramatic and colourful.

Waiting for the mail West Auckland style
I love what Merit Attention has done with the colour treatment here. Once again Lightroom comes into it's own dealing with colour temperature and beautiful clarity. Nice one.
