The attention on the accuracy of the mountain will take away the focus on the car. Of course, the objective might be to show the car in a scenic setting. If that's the case, then he needs to bring up detail on the mountain and fog/clouds.

There are several "legitimate" ways to go with with this picture. I just assumed from his first changes that he was trying to focus on the car and give more feeling of speed.

BTW, the color balance, as adjusted, of the car is spot on, IMHO.

thats exactly what i was trying to enhance. the blur may be a bit exaggerated and overdone, but im still a n00b im open to any feedback though. after all, this is a learning process and any input is appreciated
