nice composition. my first impulse was that I wanted a tighter crop so that the truck would challenge the sky for dominance (the reflection in the truck is its own turbulent sky), but on second look this works, too. The uncentered square within a square is a pleasing composition, and the "horizons" match up.

Really well placed with the horizon - too bad about the truck on the right.

That thing must have let you blind if it was a sunny day!

I can only imagine this thing reflecting sun to my eyes.

i like this one a lot. i love how the joint in the rear panels is right along the horizon of the background; genius bit of timing that. this also a picture that really rewards the longer viewing, there's so much to it. i love how the sky is reflected, and the road in a slightly distorted way. composition is really good too - just off to the side, allowing us to see the road and traffic coming the other way works well; interesting to look at but not distracting. i do wish it was advanced editing so you could clone yourself out of it (guessing it's a honda cr-v?). nice, feels very road movie. 8.
