The composition is nice, but the car looks kind of bland in comparison to the red building and bright blue sky.

Overall, very nice. I can't explain why, but it seems the front wheels should be turned the other direction. Don't know why. I also wish there weren't such strong reflections on the roof and windshield, but I think the lack of traffic is great. Good luck.

Everything is perfect here but the road. I don't know what else could be done, but road is not matching with he modern look of the buildings and the car :/ not bad photo overall though :)

This picture is driving me mad..I look at it straight on and i think "pretty average, nice picture". I stood up to make a coffee and all of a sudden it grabs me. If i look at it from above and 2 paces to my right hand side and it looks even better.
I was thinking a 6 or 7 from straight on but going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you deliberately shot it that way and give it an 8.

You have a nice Retro/Modern feel here. BB

Nice location and angle for your shot. The buildings are cool, but compete with the car for my attention. A square crop taking some off the top might have worked better on this one for me. 6

Lots of things working nicely here, but maybe too many. Good curves, lines and light.

I like the background a lot - really modern, with good lines and contrast. The only thing is that it seems to overwhelm the car a bit. The choice of lens is good for the background but it seems to distort the car a bit. In addition, the reflection off the hood and window seems to break up the lines of the car and makes it look smaller and less attractive. The car should be the center piece - and I just don't think it comes across as well as it might. Still, a good and solid image.

Lovely wide angle, just a shame it wasn't taken from ground level as it would have been so much more dramatic and would have maybe gotten more of the buildings in distorting towards the sky. Well remembered to get right of the number plate as most adverts tend to purposely miss them out.

The tagline really helps the image here - not in a shoehorning kinda way either. The image is great, good reflections on the car and placed in the correct environment. well done!

Nice composition, (nice car too) but the wide angle distortion makes the car look a bit strange IMO. Nice job otherwise.

strong lines and curves, clean composition. great shot

While I think this is a very good photo I thik a bit of dodging/burning on the buildings and the sky wouldve gave this photo the impact it deserves. the lighting is good but just way to even for my tastes. comp and focus are superb! good luck jamie

i like the wide angle effect

IMO, the lens distortion hurts this, as well as the front wheels turned to the right. I like the downtown modern cityscape feel, but the distortion of the car really hurts this shot.

Great Honda but it looks kind of small compared to the BG.

I like the way the shapes of the structures in the photo make it interesting. Nice job.

I like your car! Showing a little more of the side of the car would have worked, but I love the composition, reflections on the hood, sharpness and colors. I also am impressed you were able to get this shot with virually no cars in the background. How long did you have to wait for that, lol? 9/10

Good location. I think a lower camera angle would have been better.

great angle, good choice of background for this car

Nice angles and cool city scape. The car gets lost in the big interesting scene. It might work as a really huge poster though.

good location. due to the reflections the car doen't stand out enough

Very good shoot for a car ad, especial in an urban area. I wish the white strip on the left of the car was not there or nice and fresh. IMHO -7-
