This is an inspired series. Well done! Do you mind sharing more about your technique? What were you looking out for as subject matter and how did you achieve the vibrancy in the images. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your comment; it's very nice to hear!

I'm not doing anything groundbreaking. Generally, I just wait for the right moment, scouting for bright spots in advance—like cars in this case—and experimenting with exposure. In post-processing, I aim for color correction that's not focused on "true-to-life" colors but rather on what looks more visually appealing—similar to the approach of formalist painters. However, the adjustments are always moderate, meant to enhance colors rather than alter them entirely.🙂

But I’m happy to share more details about the process; I have no secrets.
