Number 2 does it for me. My sort of angle. You should have prised off the centre cap from No3 and put it on so it was upright !!1

Another vote for #2. I'm going to have to make it to a few more car shows with my camera this year.

Pretty ordinary IMHO. Backgrounds and angles are areas i'd suggest thinking more about. #2 isn't well exposed according to my monitor.

#2 is good. Has a very monochrome look.

it interesting that everyone likes number two. I haven't done much to it and I think Tim is right, a tad dark. I haven't touched it at all it's straight out of the camera. only usm and resize

however it's not my frav. which I think will go with number 1

#2 is a great shot, but I like #1 also. Nice example of a 964 Cab, complete with clear corners.
