Have to admit I didn't even look through the Indulgence challenge. That said, this is a sweet car - definitely fits the challenge! I particularly like how you've framed the shot with the manufacturer name just above the car - that works nicely for an advertising shot for instance. I think you've done a great job with the lighting as it existed in the venue - car show or dealership - whichever. Nit (and you can't fix it in basic) is to clone out the yellow lettering on the left. Other than that, just a bit oversharpened - can see some jaggies along the edges of the car.

Heh! LOVE that expression! Definitely meets the challenge. I didn't vote in this one but would have given it a 6. What probably hurt the score (I haven't read other comments yet) is that the lighting seems rather harsh on the framing element; it's a bit overpowering, even though the subject is well-lit. Maybe a tighter crop would help, but I kinda like it the way it is as far as composition.

Very appropriate for the challenge. Might be nice to have an object - driftwood? - as a focal point.

Not fond of the choice of purple tones, but I do like the picture as far as composition and subject.
