Hey @Joseph! This looks great, and I’m really impressed. Your composition is nice and dynamic, as the diagonal slant of the car lines suggests movement. The wheel is in focus, and it seems like you were implementing the rule of thirds somewhat. That being said, though, the wheel looks in focus, but not sharp. Perhaps you want to try sharpening it?
Also, the colors look like the white balance was greatly shifted to be far warmer than normal. This is fine, and I use it sometimes, as it can produce some interesting effects; however, this shot looks a tad bit overdone. Then again, I like the way it looks; perhaps other members can weigh in on this one.
Great shot!
July 30, 2015 at 9:32 am #12448James StaddonKeymasterI just love how I don’t really think about the fact that it has been “digitally processed”. I think about the subject, and how cool it is, not how cool the effects you made to the subject.
In my mind I’m not sure what to think: is this full color or sepia toned? Perhaps processing it one way or another would help.
Love the angles in the shot.
August 3, 2015 at 12:59 pm #12521Joseph CamusoParticipant@jamesstaddon, it is slightly sepia toned. When I get a chance I’ll post it processed differently.

Here is a new picture that is edited a little differently. What do you guys think?August 4, 2015 at 7:48 am #12540Dan CopeParticipantI like the first one you posted better. I think it’s a better composition and the sepia tone gives it a nice look. I think, though that I would have shifted the camera angle up just very slightly to give it more “breathing room” at the top and also eliminate the dark shadow at the very bottom of the picture.
August 4, 2015 at 11:00 am #12554James StaddonKeymasterI liked the angle/crop of the first one, but I do like the more vibrant colors here in your second one. Just me. 🙂 The textures are better in the first too.
