I like the angle you've taken here, although I'm not greatly keen on the reflection. Just about impossible to avoid that, though. |

Beautiful car. This shot makes me want to see more of the car. |

Nice blue jeans! Are you cheating by standing inside the chain? This is a great old car or truck, and shooting indoors with all sorts of overhead lighting (can you say hot spots to go - no matter where you stand?) is very difficult - especially if there are lots of people around. It is so easy to get yourself included in the shot - reflected in a mirror, headlight, chrome bumper, or even the high gloss paint. When I go to shoot cars, I try to dress in darker colors that match as closely as I can anticipate the background(s) present. In addition, I try to stay about 4 - 10 feet from the car, and use the camera's zoom lens to bring it close. Finally, I try to look and see if I am visible - if so, I try to move so I blend in with something in the background or to get out of the shot. Sometimes all bets are off and you just have to make do with "being there". This shot is very nicely exposed. Some may nit on the centered composition - I kind-of like it. Nice color (reflected floor) and detail. Good job of minimizing the inclusion of overhead lighting hot spots in the shot.
