These shots were taken at the semi-abandoned, former Electrohome manufacturing plant in Stellarton NS. More to come.

I like your lighting, did you use a CPL? It may just be the reflections but it looks like you did. Nice clean reflections though, and I like the backdrop.

I'd crop in on all of them so that they were more of a car shot, instead of a car + landscape shot.
They look pretty good, but #2 would be better without the building reflecting in the hood & I'd clone the trees & crud reflecting in the windows.

Yes I did use a CPL, not for all shots however, just the ones you see here. Good eye. Thanks for the comments!

Thanks Frank, I'd perfer to subscribe myself to a more contemporary style of composition as compared to what you shoot with your photos. As far as reflections go, it's Glass. It's bound to happen. ;) If I took those out I'd have to take out the weeds in the back, and well, I didn't have a weedwacker handy.

Does that have anything to do with your username? ;)

Haha quite possibly. Actually I'm a Toronto Maple Leafs fan and Leafy just stuck as my online username for the past 10 years. :cool:

A couple more.

The crop & reflections in #5 are working a lot better for me.
