Was walking down the line and the different colors and open hoods caught my eye. I added a blue filter and got rid of some writing on the car battery.

The composition is there and fine, but what wasn't there was the light. The light is very harsh. Maybe some more post processing will help?

How's this. It wasn't the best time for photos, sun was still pretty high in the sky. My first time shooting cars like this.

I don't own it, & you guys can post it too, if you'd like to.

I like what you were doing with that shot, but late light will add another dimension:
