 The cute convertible is rented, and belongs to a friend of ours who was visting. We went touring around an this was just a plain snapshot I took at a stop. No high expectations really, just wanted to enter something and this is really last minute, so I couldn't edit much and resize properly so the qulaity is kinda crappy. oh, well, rollover is in 3 min, so i better shut up ;-)

"Explore The Open Road"

Hi Anna,
The idea behind this photo is very good! The parked car tho doenst fit the title, it appears the driver is explorign the forect rather than the woods. If you had had the car in movement (shown by maybe the back of the car or the front [so the driver doesn't show]), you might have done a touch better. One other way to showcase the car would have been showign it at more of a slant with the road still visible.

I'd like to see a touch more deepening of the colours and the shadows a bit deeper and the colours banalced a touch so the areas where the sun hit not so white.

Your choice of having the car where the sun wasnt shining directly on it was an excellent idea :)

Good luck in future Challenges :)
