Hi
Your picture of the car and reflections is good.
A couple of points that will help you in future.........
1. The image is too big for the screen.
Resample them down so that they fit on the screen without having to scroll.

2. Very important with ALL images.....
Crop off parts that are of no interest and that do not enhance your composition.

eg. Empty road at the top of the pic. Yellow and black something on the right, bicycle handlebars on the bottom, oil stained road at left.

In fact on my screen the car fits perfectly with no scrolling. Everything else should be cropped off.

Keep going and don't be afraid to simplify your images.

Regards
eland

Seen this one before somewhere. Agree with the previous critique. It might be time that we have a challenge about 'my car'?

You must not have a big enough screen 8) I saw the entire image without the browser maximized. Running 1600x1200 has its benefits :)

i agree with the other posts. It is a very nice photo, but it could be great with a tighter crop

Thanks for the replies. I'm going to crop it and maybe touch up the spots on the road that remain in the pic.
