popsdawg,
welcome you are,
Protect my identity I am, Dank u wel, and in English; you I am thanking. Art Deco is an art form where colors, shapes and smooth lines and the geometry of simple shapes was the style. My hope is you Enjoyed it, I'm supposing you did by your comments? Closing with my thought, a phrase I'm thinking is true for an artist; ??To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson. My added thought:?? Strive to learn more then you know and to become more then you are and then share it with all that ask.?
Comment from RagsAuggie
Excellent shot: Agree it appears to be art deco! Good luck in the contest! Good theme shot! I really like it! If you made it black and white it would really make the times! Cindy

Oh my bad you are probably right art deco--color does work for this--I just thought black and white would make it feel like a step back in time! I did like it very much--Cindy

yes, but the black and white idea does make on think...
Comment from Andy_foto
A nice presented picture.
Very good use of light.
Angle could be a little lower and background is not as interesting as the main subject.
Sharp focus and soft colours give the extra touch.
Thanks for sharing

Andy_foto,
Welcome you are, lower meaning level with the windows of the car? The background is the support and should not overpower, but enhance.

Comment from MindsEye286
I do love the old cars. They make great storytelling! The color and framing of this one is nicely done. I like how you caught the angle parking with the positioning of the car in the frame. Lighting is good but you do have several hot spots, i.e., the truck, dots in the window, and the right front and rear fenders. You should be able to tone them down or erase them altogether with photoshop. I wonder who drove this car?? Good luck in the contest and thanks for sharing.

Comment from vipshehan-Nikon
Nice capture with good initial impact and nice detail. The color tones look good and the car is the centre of interest which holds the attention of the viewer.
Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Snapdragon
The Art Deco period was quite something especially the buildings around here in the UK
The car looks good and I am sure it looks of that period
The building perhaps does not show enough to be obvious but it suits the background for the car very nicely
Very well displayed

Very nice clarity and focus.
Initial impact is good.
The colour harmony is excellent.
Good lighting. I think it's a good one for an art deco theme.
Good luck with the competition.
