This was taken after closing time in the parking garage of the Olympia Shopping Centre in Munich. It's supposed to look like an advertisement. I was lucky, because just when I folded my tripod, the owners of that car came by...

Well that wasn't very difficult. I used an exposure meter to get the perfect exposure (cuz it's difficult with a black car, you know). The overall picture seemed a little overexposed, so I darkened every overexposure. I also darkened the car a little and the reflections kept there, they didnt change. That's what's making them so intense. Another thing is in Photoshop I selected (with that color selection tool from the menu) the highlights and created a white layer with this selection as a mask. Then I set the layer mode to soft light, blurred it a little and what came out were very intenese shining highlights.

Nope. All environment lighting there, no flash. I darkened it a tad, I guess it's better now.
