A surprisingly interesting shot. Very good double take thing hits you first off. Could have cleaned the image up a bit more but this is nice.

I spent some time working on a very similar shot for this challenge, and I didn't submit it for pretty much the same reason I don't think this works that well (don't misunderstand - it's a lot more interesting than many). I couldn't find a cohesion between the reflections and the evident shape of the car - despite liking the way the light clusters break the lines of relections, effectively all you have to work with is the distortion of an image to reveal the shape of the metal - and there simply isn't enough drama in the car's shape here to make that effective. You end up with an incoherent organisation of bits of a scene, interrupted by those lights. If I were to try this again, I think I would try to shoot from lower, to use simpler, more easily grasped shapes (like the curves over a wheel arch), rather than the complex planes and surfaces of the hood (this is a US car right?) and the fender (?bumper to us UK folks). 6, for interest, and good thinking.

I like the sharpness of the tree reflections, looks crisp and great. The shot doesn't excite me much otherwise though...

Trippy. But someone needs to slap the guy who designed the front end of that car. It's not very photogenic!

Excellent reflection picture. The large area of green leaves offsets the blue black and orange very well.

Very nicely done - the bright light on the trees bring it to life.

Indeed - very nice reflections...yet the shot seems a little soft as 'transportation"
