This Lamborghini Gallardo showed up for the local Friday night cruise and I quickly pounced upon it. I was lucky to get near it, and had to wait for the crowd to clear to get some decent shots.

No cropping. This is the whole photo. Flash fired.
Shadow highlight, levels, saturation, minor spot adjustments, unsharp mask, resize, save for web.

harsh lighting really hurts this - maybe a different angle - a way I haven't seen this before? Cool car and nice idea to make it fit the challenge.

Something about the lighting makes it look plastic-like. I wish it was either a tighter crop, or a wider one...IMHO either would add a little more impact. But just my two cents

hmm, wish you could've taken a pic of the cylinders, also your crop seems too tight, especially where you've cut off the bottom of the bumper.. I like the smooth coloring of the car and you've managed to not get any bad reflections and have a pretty nice focus, nice work overall

salivating... :) Great use of what appears to be late afternoon sun, does wonders for the orange here. A killer crop too! Well done.
