I guess a lot of people didn't get this photo.. I was going for the dramatic lighting. Think my problem was blowing out the windshield and bumper a bit.. Thanks for the helpful & friendly comments to those that left em.

Imaginative idea. Perhaps the center is too dark.

Nice subject, and cool angle. I'm not sure I like the lighting very much - lot of detail lost in the back end.

interesting. would like a few details on how you staged this shot. a little too much glare in the windshield, tho.

Nice concept but I feel the reflection light on the windshield and front hood are too distracting. Would be really neat if you could reshoot and minimize that. really like the choice of border.

the left, top and bottom seem quite dark, perhaps if the light source were more diffuse and there was a longer exposure time we could really get some details of the interior of the model car!

The border you chose compliments the picture nicely but I feel the widnshield is too opaque and the paint on the car is not even enough for the right impact.

Porsche? It is a little disturbing to the eye that the front of the car is is facing downwards a little, the whole car is not square in the photo. Also the light is slightly blowing the windshield out in the middle. The border fits excellently to this image.

the lighting could be improved upon a little.

Lighting is a little harsh. Perhaps a reflector would help.

almost too black, i think it would be a bit nice if you put more light on the car, but it is still avery nice image

This pic is too dark IMO - I realise it's supposed to be partly in shadow but there's too little of the true colour showing through.
