Here's a failed photo which I tried to recover. (Note to myself: never go out taking pictures with someone who leaves the car running with all the lights on and drives by all the good spots)
The original image was going straight to the trash bin, but before that I decided to play with it.
As you can see it looks like rubbish. Ugly reds from the car, a boring lighting and out of focus.
After Lightroom:
After Photoshop:
It's actually quite easy to do. Simply kill the reds, start balancing the lights with adjustment curves and add some color.
