Nice car and a great background, I see the effort. IMHO though I think a couple steps to the right might have helped show more of the side view, giving the perspective buyer more information in one picture.

Simple, clean. Nice composition. I think too much tree reflections on the hood. Nice photo though for a car ad :)

It feels like you have desaturated this a little? Not sure if I totally agree with the coloring but I do like the background being out of focus. That helps keep the eye on the subject. BB

I don't know if it's just the angle, but I'm not very excited by it. Sorry.

Nice pic, but the shadows on the hood and the sharp background take away from it and make it look more snapshottish to me. 5

Really good auto ad! A traditional set up, excellent angle on the truck (and an extremely clean one at that!), and really good background.

bit too flat to warrant a high score. a bit more depth would of helped.

I dont know whether it's on purpose or an accident: the reflection of the tree on the hood is a real nice touch supporting your title.

Great picture of your truck but I think the BG is too busy. Granted there is nothing going on back there but the first thing I noticed when opening the image was the trees in the BG and leaves on the ground. You want the truck to be the more powerful placement in the image.

Lovely shiny car, and great backdrop.

Maybe the reflections on the screen and left headlight are a bit too bright ?

Excellent lighting, composition, and use of the dark color vehicle to enhance the reflection in the oblique light. 7

What's that reflection in the bonnet? Looks like a pair of pants on a washing line. :) The woodland setting is a great idea, but a clearing would have given smoother reflections on the car.

location works perfectly. needs a slight bump in saturation. blown lights on left headlight distract

Very sharp shoot of the truck, while the background is somewhat soft focus, give a good separation. Very believable car ad. Maybe a slight rotation where a little more of the side would show? -7-
