 Just happened to come across a display of old vehicles while going to a garden expo. This old Mercedes was well cared for and the reflection off the rear of the headlight was amazing. Olly problem was the dust off the road near by had settled over the cars.

Little cropping.

Very creative framing elements - cars frame headlight which in turn frames another car. Lighting and DOF are good too, and this is an interesting photo for it.

This is a great idea, but I think maybe it is cropped a bit too close. It took me a couple of looks to figure out what I was looking at, and I don't think I would have figured it out then without the title. Very bright and clear. The hand in the background is a little distracting, but overall nice work.
