Great, fun, brings a smile to my face. Pity it wasn't a really nice blue sky day then would have IMO been a ribbon shot, with a huge saturation of colours. A little sharpening wouldn't have gone amiss either. Still a 9 in my book - good stuff.

Would of been nice to get a bit lower and closer to get none or less of the background in the shot! Nice colours though - the rust looks good.

The bench on the front fender and the building behind are distractions. The bench might be movable, and much of the building could be hidden by a different point of view and different cropping. It is an excellent subject. The building also results in the subject itself being underexposed.

A 4.

I like this. The flowers inject a much needed bit of color. The placement in front of a house, seperates it from the rural scenes making up most of the challenge entries. I might prefer a picture taken at a different time of day, particular if this view is from the east. A sunrise photo would be awesom. 10

Cute subject. I would look for some angles to present it in a different way, walking around, trying various background and moving back and forth.

I would love just one like it in my garden, brilliant use of an old car and a very good shot of it to.

I realize that it is probably impossible to change, but i feel the drab house background really takes away from the potential of this shot. even the best subject needs the right composition. maybe looking for a different angle might help. just something to consider.

I wish the sun had cooperated with you on this. The lighting is so indirect. How did it look from more toward the front end of the truck? I think your composition could have been improved by a few steps to the right, so that the tree isn't right in the crease of the roof. Always walk around your shot (if you can) and check angles.

Excellent image, spot on challenge - could be a winner. Pity the sun didn't shine brighter that day! Good composition adds to the attraction.

perhaps a different angle would have brought me into the picture a little more.

I think a tighter crop would have helped this image. The background roof is distracting from the main focus, and I'm not sure it would hurt to loose some of the taller plant.
