Hello Hanna from the Critique Club,
Composition
This must have been an opportunity shot - composed as well as possible bearing in mind the location. The wire across the front is distracting, as is the background and the other vehicles but maybe it would have been difficult to rearrange it. I have played with a tighter crop and it doesn't help. At least the diagonal placing of the car, providing depth, works.
Focus
The whole image is in focus - maybe if you had used a larger aperture (smaller f number), you could have thrown some of the distractions out of focus but you would lose some detail on the main subject - your choice.
Exposure
Exposure looks about right, you have some blown highlights but they do not contain important detail and the image has a good even range from black to white.
Challenge
I guess this is unusual enough to meet the challenge - it would have been better in a controlled environment but we have to make do with waht is ther!
Overall
Well spotted and the capture is about as good as you could make it in the environment. Keep shooting, maybe there will be an opportunity to shoot it on its own one day.

Interesting car! Too bad the chain and the other vehicle were there. Perhaps a tighter shot with more detail on the ornamentation would have helped some. |

That is certainly odd... I'd be interested to see a tighter shot on the bonnet so we could make out some of the objects-de-art on there! |

I guess going through a carwash is out of the question for the owner of this car. |

Fun car, image is a bit pixelated (maybe over-sharpened?) and I would try to clone out the sliver car in the background if you make prints of this. Nice entry. |

This is an out of the ordinary car. I wish it I could say the same for the compostion. I closer cropping of just part of the car would have made the point, but shown more detail and eliminated the mundane surroundings. As it is, it's a bit overexposed and I can't make out any of the art.
I actually had this idea as one sees quite a few decorated cars in the part of Providence where I live. It's an artsy city. |

Good subject but a tighter crop on the car would probably help to be able to see some of the the things on the car itself, as it is it just looks like some birds flew over and left a mess on the car. |
