Spent some time in the rain and risked my camera and lens on a rigged up tripod to get this shot. I wish my lens were wider to capture more of the front and and more motion. The weather sucked for this as well and i had a drab sky to work with. I would like a six for my troubles but I could see this finishing mid 5's.

nice. A very good, clean shot. I like the way grill looks very clean :) You might get at least honorable mention place ;)

Nice motion blur and good sharp focus on the Ford logo here. The antenna cut out at the top of the frame is a little annoying, because it draws my eye up and out of the image. 6

Personally, the grill and emblem are mesmerizing - the top half of the image is distracting to me. Nice light on the grill and emblem.

Interesting crop here. I wish we could see a little more bumper. BB

in your face it certainly is, but no bad thing. I like it :-)

I like that this was shot while moving, or so it appears!

Background blur and water/rain help this totally centred composition work.

Good perspective shot - the center crop sells stability and ruggedness to the audience. I think blacking out the windows even more would have even helped this a bit more.

Not bad overall, just a tad mundane really. Nie having the speed blur at the sides of the shot though. 6

I only wish that the bottom wasn't cut off, that is bothering me. Like the title and the concept.

Nice simple shot that has been well executed. I like the centred composition and the external motion blur. Good sharpness as well

It'd be tougher if it was an F250/350! LOL!!! I think it would have been a little more imposing with the rest of the front of the truck in the image. Just my $0.02 US

Hey, how did you take this? It would be better done on a non-rainy day for nicer reflections on the car.
