Thank you. I don't always go for wide angle effects just for the "wowie", unless it is done well enough. You have found an extreme yet aesthetic angle, the focus is absolutely the best you can put on this scene, colours are nice and in reflections there is an amazing almost imperceptible shift from field to field, even the jump across the chrome strip to the real cobblestones picks up right on beat, it's like the plane of the real surface merges with the perpendicular plane of the reflected setting, you have captured everything with a compostion that is zoned in on just barely one thing... and mainly, this captures a very specific identity of the subject and yet the angle isolates a detail of its beauty and frees it to become a design / artistic statement. I usually hate to just praise pretty pictures I hapened to like, and cars are one of the many subjects where stock photos from the same angles are a dime a dozen, and a really creative take is more rare to find ... this is a picture that is pleasure to contemplate and reassures me that a creative angle CAN be found. Inspiring and instructive ~ and delicious.

WhiteStag is right. All the elements come together to make this a wonderfully composed and rendered photo. Well done!

I doubt you'll ever take a more striking photo of your vehicle. Thats a compliment not a challenge! Well done!

Unless I'm very much mistaken (and I probably am) ...all Renault Clio owners should be proud of your fine effort here! Regards M. :)

Thanks to all of you for all your nice compliments about my picture! And yes, R3MAF... you are very close... it's a Renault Laguna. Thanks again! Byebye, F. ;-)
