Nice capture of the Auto, but the composition lacks movement. A little Photoshop work on this image could take it from a snapshot look, to a nice feeling of movement with out getting lost in purpose.

Hi there and thanks for the response! I wasn't looking to show motion, if I was I would have slowed down the shutter a tad and panned the shot ;)

When I took the shot, I saw a B&W conversion with no thrills... and I position myself to capture a front to side shot of the car. But again... I really appreciate your input!

If you like... feel free to Photoshop the image and let's see how you would have had it :beerbang:

BTW... nice to meet you!

Alex

OK... I thought I would make a few changes for your request for motion. Again... not the look I was originally after... but it looks good also ;)

:agree:

I like both versions as well. Each makes it's own comment.
I am not a critic.....just an observer.
For me it is about PASSION for what you do.
Otherwise, it seems like WORK. :dry:
