Pearlescent

The two tone paint on this Mini Cooper was unique at the show, and it certainly draws you in

 

Capturing this was not as straight up as i thought.

 

Using my little 40mm Micro I closed in on the paint, highlighting the fine droplets, using them as 'magnifiers' highlighting even more detailing in the paints flecks

 

but thats not where it ended, the paint reacts to light, the angle of which it refracts into your eye, or lens in this case, changes the colour variant of the paint, for this shot i wanted to highlight both in unison, so the right angle of my eye and body had to be achieved to make the blend you see, which a very tight band of depth of field along the lower 3rd of the photo
