C&C - Hot Rod

[tevo]

Played around with the sun / lens flare, and tried a truly worm's eye angle. I decided not to clone out the tree because otherwise the background seemed kind of boring, thoughts? C&C is appreciated.

its a cool view, clone out the tree and make it a black and white OR have you played with textures. This might be great for that.

I'll clone out the tree and see how I like it. What do you mean play with the texture?

I like it a lot. I like the tree as well. Could you tell me a little more about how you did it?

Laid flat on the ground, the sun was tucked behind the engine cover so it made a nice flare. Shot at f/4 I think. In post, just some cloning, lowered the blacks, and a bit of burning around the flare to preserve detail.

Oh, I understand how the shot was obtained but I thought the sun was artificial and I thought it looked super nice. Now that I know its real that is probably why I liked it so much.
