critique...

so for our local car show we had handmade trophies... one was the lowest dub, a busted up oil pan, with a sanded in logo for the show. my hardest time was getting the light to highlight the logo portion. it was fun to try something different. but to the naked eye you can see it clear as day, with the camera, not so much... lol. any tips for future reference?

end of story... lol

its interesting, I think if the logo was more the focus itd be a stronger composition?

If you wanted to light it, perhaps try mounting up a flashlight with a white fabric piece over it (t-shirt, anything thin really) to soften the light and pointing it at the logo

would probably look neat if you got a closeup wide angle like that?

well the photo was taken at the show and all i really had to work with was natural lighting... but i totally get what you are saying... i wish i had a wide angle to use! it would have made for a great shot!
