celica shot

so i felt pretty good about this shot, i never thought i was much good at shooting auto's, as much as id like to be, but i had someone else leave some comments about it that made me second guess myself. Go ahead and tear this down, dont be affraid to be harsh you wont hurt my feelings. i want to know what everyone thinks.

1) a smidge oversaturated? but that really only omes through on the wheels which look a bit blue (vs white)

2) I wish the background was a bit blurred, its got a good pattern and it lets the car set itself apart really well, but it has some details randomly dispersed that grab my eye away from the reflector on wheels

3) very sharp clean image, no complaints there

4) it just lacks a little pizzaz in composition I think, its a good shot, shows the car well, but its a bit centered and it works to show what the car looks like, but as a glamour shot it perhaps would be a little better zoomed out / smidge off center

take the comments with a grain of salt...im still learning a ton myself, just what seemed to catch my eye

i got a whole bunch of other Macro, fun composition shots, this one was a strait up get the "car" shot? if that makes sense? i agree with variation in the back ground though. i darkened and cropped it just a bit, so maybe a slight desaturation?

the one comment i had on it, someplace else was the windows were to dark and made it look fake? i didnt see it, but i wondered if someone else would pick up on it.

i agree fully with everything said here.

next time, maybe pull the car out further from the background to try and increase the DOF to get some blur behind the car
