I think you need a tighter crop... too much dead space o the left. Nice DOF tho.

Good idea and use of diagonals. Maybe if you had been closer to just one of the the cars, or if the focus was a little sharper on them ( I seem to lose some detail on the first and last ones), it would have been a slghtly more effective picture.

I think I'd have put the pickup in front with an "Official Pace Car" sign on it.

Sorry, the toy cars don't work for me.

The two cones in the background are competing with the cars for my attention. Like the way you've placed the cars though.

If roads were only that wide.

Hehe, cool concept. The orange cones in the background add to the feeling of it. That second to last one is gonna rock the rest. ;)

Cute. Wish it would have been a little clearer, but cute nontheless.

cute idea

Nice picturem cute idea.

Definitely on the road! I donĂ¢€™t generally care for an out of focus foreground. This may have looked better focused more to the foreground or maybe cropped a bit from the bottom and left.

Matchbox cars, cool! Cute idea, but the scale (huge road, smalllll cars) overwhelms the shot. Angle shot creates good interest, but hoses the focus of the yellow car, my favorite!) I am also not certain that the "close to the ground" concept helps here either, but I could be wrong. Did you try any higher, less angled views?

Fun shot. lol Might of turned them all this way to make them appear lined up at the starting line, but I see your idea and it's very creative.

you are a bit too far from your subject. You've got to much distraction in the photo such as the two cones and all the empty space in front of the cars. You should get in tight and give me a feeling that these are real cars. You might want to consider making 2 lines of cars so that you can get in tigher. I also like how you left space in front of the first car to give the viewer a feeling that this car will be going somewhere.
