The HDR processing is done pretty well.

The shot though, looks almost like a snapshot of a car that just happened to be parked along the street. If it isn't a car you could have staged better, disregard that last bit.

The spacing is uneven front and rear, and doesn't look like it is exactly on purpose.

It was my first car HDR, just happened upon it, no staging involved. Thought that it was pretty clean and the red would turn out pretty good for the HDR... More of snapshot than anything...

Like I said, the HDR processing was well done from a technical stand point, it was more the staging that was lacking.

As a snapshot turned HDR, good first attempt.

Good effort for a grab shot.

You should make a hue/saturation layer and take out the cyan in the photo. I guess to me the background is just really not impressive.
