lol no dragons on the bridge
It is really amazing what Photoshop can do.
We have 14 photographers in the greater Montreal area shooting properties in HDR with D3100/D3200 and the likes with a 12-24mm Nikon lens and a custom device which takes 8 exposures at the touch of a button, all setup on a tripod. We're the leading company in the domain and by a large margin, brokers pay over a hundred dollars for the entry level HDR photoshoot (~25 pics).
Believe me, you can charge money.

I think I'll redo that last image on the bridge and screen cast it

It's not a bad job, ~$175-200 a day up to 6 days a week. Your car, your gas, (thus your tax deductions, recover half the spending) but our camera, lens, tripod, etc. We throw appointments your way and you take pictures then upload them on our central server via an automated app. Rest of job is done by people in office. Downside is there's slower times in the year as well as very busy times so you need to juggle your money.

Has its perks. Not everybody can pull it off. Some do it for 10 years, some for 1 month. It's demanding to be always on the road dealing with hectic real estate brokers.
Needs to have epic medieval music, to fit with the dragon theme.

Great pic, we know you're good at adding the beautiful background but let's be clear it would be nothing if it wasn't for a good pic of the actual car itself. You take good picture angles where you can appreciate the lines and the curves of the 3G. Nice work!

It's getting very boring to edit and take pictures of my car.
The 3G TL is definitely easy to take nice pictures of!

Wow Thanh...forget the car and pictures...you taking the time to make a youtube tutorial is really kind and impressive. Thanks for taking the time. I really do feel like at some point I'll need to make the jump to Photoshop to really be any good. I might mess around today...can't recall but I could have sworn I have a copy of it somewhere.

Once you use Photoshop, you won't really need to go back to Lightroom, unless you have 20+ pictures to edit such as from car meets

I like Lightroom though as you said for batch working on pictures. It's also very user friendly for beginners. Use it a lot at work for correction to HDR pictures in post-prod while I use photoshop for lens flare correction, blurring/removing of items etc.

It's not that nice there.
Thanh,
Go to old port (vieux port), west island, st. joseph's oratorie, and whatever the island where La Ronde was called again.
There's also a decent stretch of factories and what nots off of Rene Levesque and Papineau.
Most of the city is under heavy traffic (and lots of tight spaces). The places I mentioned are great for night photography. You should be able to squeeze into places and not be too bothered.
