I would be interested in your comments about the attached picture. The chap who owns the car has got me to print him out an A3 version of it!.

It was taken on a 5D, with me leaning out the window of the car in front.

As you can guess or see it has had some Photoshop applied it. I am not sure whether I should have left in the rear window of my car. This is on the left. I have tried this technique on similar car pictures. This is the only one I have been really satisfied with.

Thanks

Robert

I'm almost a little curious to see what it would look like without blurring your car. It might not look so obviously photoshopped. Cool shot!

Maybe a different crop?

I sure thought they were cool back in the day. Neat little cars


I can't decide, but I think it would look better if it was leveled

Thanks for the comments, very helpful.

I have actually cropped it so that the picture is now portrait and used it on the cover of the details of an event the club I belong to are running.

Whilst I am not generally a fan of tilted images I feel it adds to the impact in this case.

I attach a copy of the cover.

That works, when you need the space.
