 Nothing too complicated, just happened on these local "take away" delivery vans and liked the vibrancy that the colours added to the shot.

I appreciate the advice on angles of shot etc. The trouble with this shot was that it wasn`t originally the pic that I was going to enter,
I just liked the designs on the vehicles.My idea was to try to hide the fact that they were vans (ie wheels ,windows, doors etc)but retain enough to identify them (with a bit of work)as vehicles..hence the rear doors and lights.On reflection, what I would like to have done, was to have altered the angle of shot to include more of the advertisement on the other vans and to add to the perspective, but still hide their identity.

I think you should have moved a bit to you left which might have provided a better angle as to what I was looking at. I appreciate the tightness of this crop to show the repeated patterns of the pizzas on the trucks but feel that more a more angular shot would have emphasized that more. Nice find.

Good points: Use of repetition, meets the challenge
Criticisms: You got the advertisement in, which get's your point across, but the sense that you are shooting vehicles as a subject is lost. Different composition is needed. Try shooting from another viewpoint to create a stronger image.

Hard to tell they are vans. Almost looks more like billboards. Colorful and wll lit.
