Greetings from the CC, I think what i find most lacking in your shot is some perspective, it is a bit too close up to really tell what it is. I think it is an interesting interpretation of topic but without title not sure I would of known what it is. Taking a few steps back may have really helped IMO. I also think that if you use an 'ordinary' subject i.e. car, that you need to do something to make it grab your attn. I would like to see more of the damage. Perhaps using the mirror as a point of interest to reflect more would of been nice too. Just some ideas hope it helps, keep shooting.

This is a littel busy... I can't tell what you want me to focus upon. I'd have no idea this was a car without the title. Good clear black & white, though...

too close. should have shown a little more of the whole car.

Too hard to make out a car- it just comes across as garbage to me. Pull back a little or show a steering wheel and you've got it.

I hate this kind of conflicts... Anyway, great shot and very good use of B&W. congratulations.

Interesting choice of the close up. It's almost hard to recognize what it is when it's not in the state we're used to. I think that gives it powerful effect. I like the choice of black and white as well. 7

good idea and nice range of tones. the composition is a little busy - makes it hard to distinguish what is happening

Why did you put a border around this image? Plus there is no focus subject in the image and the contrast is to flat.

Without the title, some people wouldn't be able to tell this is the front end of a car..? Maybe a glimpse of the road would have helped, or possibly another car.
