You can't just throw pictures of a car up for sale if it's all cloudy outside
Believe it or not, that gets you less money for the cars

I have no idea how to get around this
I doubt it, but is there any way to add a sunlight effect to photographs? A REALISTIC looking effect? The ones I've seen look really stupid.
Almost as bad as those fake cumshot pics!

Any ideas ????
Set you aperture to as big as it will go eg. F4.0 or F2.8. Set your shutter speed to around 1/60, white balance your frame, start with 200iso and work your way up to 800. Or if you have a tungston rig, set the white balance to that, about 10 feet away from your lights. you will get a yellowish exposure from this, but it will re render beautifully in photoshop. Raw files, of course, and just replace your color
