Working with new monitor and computer, would like to know how this looks. Only interested in brightness, contrast, and sharpness, not so much composition. This is an old pic, but exposure, and focus seemed like a good test subject.

Thanks for any input.

There is a nice contrast between the highlights and the shadows. The bumper is a bit blown out and should be toned down a bit. I like the image, though.

I think it's good. I do like how you left some of the motor showing and you didn't kneel down toooo far.

btw it looks just the slightest bit not-level. Just a little to the right.

I see it now too. I'd say about .5-1 degrees counter-clock wise tilt. I also agree about the motor showing. Nice touch.

Good to hear the words "calibrated monitor" along with your comments. :D
