 Bev drove me to her car dealer yesterday. They were closed. Speculation is they may close for good. Freakin' gas prices....

Think I'd appreciate this more in B&W. various reflections are making my eyes dart all over the place.

This is cool, that̢۪s right cool, I̢۪m old school. I like how the reflection looks part country road, and part glass and steel city scape. Like it̢۪s saying let me take you.

This is only a nice abstract photo. I think I have to be really Pontiac guy to recognize the eye (lights) that close. Too much reflection in the headlight. It could be a good ad for headlight ad :)

Too many confusing lines and reflections here; doesn't really do anything for me. Sorry. 4

Makes for an interesting abstract, though I'm not sure it shouts "ad" to me.

Unique angle here but I think I kind of like it.

I'd like to see more of this - not the car, but playing with the composition and reflections. Nice take.

Nice abstract macro shot - The lines and colors really work well together. I think a bit of the Pontiac symbol would really help this image come across to the consumer.

I am sure you are getting hammered by the 'its not a whole car' crowd. Me too! Anyway, I like the shot. 7

To confusing, other then you saying it is a Pontiac, I have no clue what it is.

Not really a good car ad shot. distinctly average.

I like the idea and the reflection of the skyline - but the other reflections rather distract I'm afraid.

I initially could nto tel lwhat part of the car this was. Thought it was the windsheild, but I now see it is the headlamp. The reflection in it is confusing to man and I cannot figureout what it has to do with the title.

Unusual concept and very interesting to look at. 8

Not really sure what I am looking at in the reflection. Its cool looking though.

Well I might buy that headlight if I needed on but no thanks. :)

Good artistic quality....only negative thing I can see is that there is no identifying feature to sell this as a Pontiac. Good image, though.

This ends up a bit too abstract for my taste. :(

nice abstract. too much reflections for a car ad.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice technical shoot. Great detail work. But I would have to see other images to make it part of a car ad for a Pontiac car, this particular image is not giving me enough detail on the vehicle. IMHO -6-
