Shot this weekend after a trip to vegas..I usually read the challenges at the beginning of the week and the challenge topic is playing in my head during the week, making every object I see undergo a subconscious evaluation of whether it fits the challenge, when I saw these two, the first word out of my mouth as I fired up my camera was...the IRONY..hence the title lol

I'm afraid this does not stike me as low key. It comes off to me as a bright daylight shot that has been darkened and had some strong contrast thrown at it. This has admittedly been a difficult subject to define.

Meets Challenge: 3 of 3. Windshields are a bit bright, maybe this could have been taken later in the day? Risk losing the shiny grill though.. hmm...
Technical: 3 of 3. Good focus, cropping, subjects, etc. Well done.
Emotion: 2 of 3. You just know these cars are used to do dirty deeds. No one needs *two* RRs unless they're up to no good.
Awe: 0 of 1.

And yeah, if I saw those bad boys rolling down the street together, I'm *sure* I'd notice them. Low Key they are not!

Nice find, I think it would have been much cleaner if you took a closeup shot of the front end of the car... this is a nice find, but the trees in the background are a bit distracting and a closeup would help eliminate this

I think a tighter crop along the top would help. Maybe about 2/3 down from where it is and the roof of the near rolls
