Ridiculous that this is so far down on the totem pole. I guess I'm a sucker for old cars. I like this one!!

I gave this a 6. That represents a solid shot.

Technicals: I'm guessing this was handheld? Is that why you went with ISO 800. I think you were going for a better DOF with the f/11, but it wasn't enough. The upper blurred light would have been much better sharp as well since it commands a fair amount of attention as well. If you are just shooting for DPC, you can take advantage of the small canvas size. Scoot back and your DOF will increase. Then crop it down when you get home. Another question was whether this was your car and you could move it. I was guessing not, but the lines on the reflection are a bit too busy for my taste. Getting rid of them, naturally, would involve moving the car. (I see your comments now and note it isn't your car. ;))

The feel: I liked it as an abstract or even a product shot. The composition is nice.

The game: The choice is reasonable as a subject. I think it was the DOF that got you.

Great composition, lovely light and reflections, unusual almost abstract presentation of an everyday object. Works.
