Congratulations to the winners!
The lighting on the left wall (can't even make out what it is) takes away from the image for me. I would love to give this 3 stars because the cars are nice and the lighting there is great, and the lights on the road are cool. But is there is just so much happening with the sky, the green bushes on the right and the wall on the left. The crop also feels a little off. Overall I love the technique used and a lot is just really good (of goed ;) but it just does not have the right mix for me to give it 3 stars.
I think it is solid. Mark V : Don't you think that if the left wall wasn't lit, the photo would be way too dark on the left side. Wouldn't all the black there, completely swallow the black GTI in the background?
I see why Thomas lit the left hedge as he did. A plausible light source would be nice though.
On another note, the cars, as they are posed don't convey a parking situation, but the feeling of the pair just arriving through the gate. But for that to be plausible, both cars are missing drivers.
Thank you both for your reactions. Mark V and lee qid
Everything is possible with this technique. That makes it very personal. Every shot is different. I like it. And yes, it would be better with drivers in it, good one!
