Hello from Critique Club ;)

I have to say that not everyone knows what "Digital art" is and I think this photo is one of the good samples of a digital art. Why did I say that, obviously you did a nice post process, knowingly and proudly (that's what I would feel anyway). So, why did you get 5.5 instead of better in this challenge? Well let's take a look,

1-I think you had to get rid of the passenger. She doesn't look so happy and she makes things a bit crowded in the car 2-Harsh shadow of the car on the road... boy, it would look a lot better under cloudy weather. 3-You should put the car bit more center of the road. 4-(and last) darkening things a bit over done (I know it is your style)... Now, I like the way it is, but if it would be a bit, just a bit lighter (Because it's a color photo), I think some of the voters who don't like post processing too much, would become friendlier :)

I would say this is a photo should be around 6.1, 6.2 as it is, with other stuff fixed I put above could get you easily 6.7 or more :)

Good luck on your next challenge.

5 - Looks like fun - I think your processing is apt, but the nose of the 'machine' pointing out of the frame detracts overall - so wonder about a variation in crop - as much as I like the green on the side.. the overall balance seems off.

The subject of the image is great, but the quality of the presentation is not so great.
