Was pottering in the garage the other day and noticed all the reflections on the car so had to have a go.
I think the results are a bit busy but decided to post them to see what others think/suggest. I like the second pic the best.
Cheers, John D

Great potential here Jed. Well spotted! A couple of points - image #2 lacks a little 'pop'. Perhaps a little tweaking with the curves in photoshop will help smarten the contrast and therefore visual impact. #1 could have possibly been improved by changing perspective a little and utilising the lines created by windscreen rubber, panel joints etc. to create a directional sweep for the eye. #2 has inklings of what I mean. #2 the red handlebars,or whatever, in the window are a little distracting too. Seeing photographic opportunities is a great start, execution is next. Gee photography is challenging. Trying to capture what's in the mind's eye is so frustrating when you don't hit it and so fulfilling when you do.
Great effort.
cheers
