VW Bug Shot. Comments? Advice?

[cici_rupert9]

I shot this at the Texas Hot Rod Hoedown with a Canon EOS 20D. It's re-sized and has been edited.
Advice would be awesome since I'm still figuring out how to take good pictures.
This is one of my favorites though.

I would straighten the horizon line so there is no tilt and its quite a bit over saturated for my taste.

The tilt is a but of an artistic touch to me. Some agree, some don't so I understand. I will keep the saturation in mind though. Thank you

The picture is nice and sharp. I know it was your artistic decision, but the tilt ruins it for me. The over saturation with the tilt makes me a little dizzy.

I like the low angle and the clouds.

I agree I personally do not like the tilt but again it's just preference. Clean shot and I like the clouds in the background. I had a convertible 74 Carman Ghia for years. It was in a few shows but I lost all the pictures of it somehow.

It's hard to get one isolated, since they're parked so close to each other, but to better show a car, you need to get it away from background clutter, have better light, take lots of shots, and do your best at editing.

I like the colors and the clouds, but the tilt does not work for me.

I also like the strong colours I think they work here bit I would straighten it out.

I think sometimes the issue with the tilt is often it comes across as poor camera holding and not artistic. Nice vintage processing, though.

Neat car.

Have to agree on the tilt and saturation but I do like the low angle and also the sun's reflections off the chrome - might be worth considering a small aperture and focal length to get sunstars on automotive shots like this.

I like the saturation but the tilt makes me uncomfortable. (jmho)
