Nimbus Grey Acura MDX in parking structure made of concrete and stone ... grey on grey on grey. Signage included for a pop of color, despite the risk of them being a distracting element and not grey.

Extensively post processed for a dark, cinematic effect I felt enhanced the overall "greyness."

Excellent image. I'm surprised this finished under six. Lighting, color, contrast, and composition are spot on. Well done.

Very clean and crisp, and gritty all at the same nice. Your photography makes that SUV more impressive than it really is.

Someone went to the carwash for this picture... ;-) I like this picture, but not sure I can quite explain why. The industrial feel, the yellow/orange details on the car, ground and pillar, the way different parts of the picture are lit up that keep the picture interesting and the eye wandering. Oh, and it's a nice car, too.

Looks like it came straight from a magazine. Great lighting. I love the inclusion of the signs.

Nice stock type image. I wish the SUV were tack sharp but the overall composition and use of "meeting the challenge" really works for me. 7

Not a bad try, but its very black and the shadows are overpowering.
