Today's photo of a red truck was taken in the mountains of Utah. I really liked how the snow was covering most of the truck except the grill and lights.
When I saw this truck, I wanted to convey the size and muscle of this work horse. To do this I positioned myself close to the ground pointing the camera up, filling the frame with the entire truck. I also wanted to show how the red paint popped through the white snow.
I started off by importing the RAW photo into Lightroom and made the normal adjustments in Adobe Camera Raw. My goal for this photo was to accentuate the red. To do this I switched to Develop mode and in the HSL/Color/Grayscale panel I moved all the sliders except red to -100, I then bumped the red slider to +100. I then added a little Vignette to bring focus to grill the truck.

Wow, this is a really cool shot and I love how you processed it. I was in Park City all week last week and I can appreciate the snowy picture here...I loved it out there!
