Guy in turquoise car, partly in frame

Thoughts?

Got some nice lines but not a fan of the clipped roof line.

It looks like a cropped shot taken by accident. I'm not into forcing the so-called rules of composition into photography -- I think a gut instinct is more significant. But this is too off for me.

However, that said, it will work for somebody I'm sure. Did you take more shots?

Nice street photography! You clever rascal, you!

I mean the car was going like 50 mph, and was four feet away, so no.

Well, that explains it.

looks like a millisecond too early. Not bad though considering. I like the car and colors, natural frame. Car doesn't look like it belongs in that neighborhood. Millesecond later it might have lined up better with the arrow on the ground and not cropped the roof. But beggars cant be choosers. still like it.

more or less how I felt, though I honestly can't decide if it was a millisecond too early or too late. I think a millisecond later and I don't really get the guy's profile, but the car is fully in frame and it holds the lines I wanted. A millisecond earlier and the view of the guy is better, but you lose the diagonals and get a more standard straight side view of the car.
