Well this being my first challenge on DPC I am pleased with where this ended up. Thank you to everyone for the great comments. Using the large 'S' at the end I was hoping to lead your imagination through the image. Now I realize this may not have been the best photo for this challenge.

Creature - as far as not picking up the reflections in the paint... You're right a good polarizer works wonders. Also the best way to take car photos is to make sure you have cloud cover. When I took this photo the sky was pretty much clear except for a 4 or 5 minute window where one stray cloud was passing over...

Not much of a leading line. Nice sharp photo of an "S" though.

That looks like an advertisement.

I like the simplicity of your image and the red really "pops" This would be great for advertising.

A nice stock type photo for this particular vehicle I suppose. While the 'S' is nice it's not what this challenge is about IMO. It's supposed to be a leading line that takes the viewer thru the image, not just a letter 'S'.

I wanted to go a bit graphic for the challenge, but ended up going for something else... Glad to see it tho!!!

Well shot, but doesn't really fit the challenge, the S is to lead the viewer through your image. This simply just has an S in it.

Great lighting and color. How did you avoid any reflections in the paint? I mean, it almost looks matte, so it seems like more than just a polarizer.

WHOA, nice color and lighting! The Ultimate S!
