Earth Mover

I found this brand new Volvo earth mover. I took a series of HDR images of some of it's parts. I couldn't make any one shot work so I blended 2 shots together to form this composite.

Caution Tech Stuff:

The lower section is a center view of a large 6 foot tall wheel from this behemoth. The upper part are some hydraulics from under the cab. After the composite was flattened and sharpened I made a layer copy of it and Gaussian blurred it. The blurred layer was added back in using 20% hard mix to give it some grunge.

Not what I was thinking when I took these pictures but I didn't have the heart to pitch the whole shoot...
