I like it, there's something about it I can't quite put my finger on.

Eggleston-like?

[Eric Myrvaagnes]

As a fan of black-and-white I have to admit that this just wouldn't work as well without the color, especially the "conversation" between the car and the bush.

Russ, I don't quite "get" this one.  What's it about? 

[RSL]

Hi Ed, It's about a red car.

[Ed Blagden]

Splat!

Walked right into that one.   

[RSL]

Yep.

Actually, I'm in the same boat as Alan. There's something there I can't quite put my finger on, and that's why I shot it. I'd call it street photography except it's about a red car.

Eggleston-like?

No, it has more rigor than Eggleston.

[graeme]

It's the row of flying ducks under the roof, Russ...

[Dale Villeponteaux]

It's perfectly balanced, like a Modrian.

Thanks, gang. I lucked out. But it's the result of what I've pontificated about here and elsewhere: for good photographs, don't think, just react.

My honest $0.02 is that there isn't much pulling me in here. Perhaps there is a story about a red car, but it isn't really interesting to me.

Hi Marc, As we used to say in Vietnam: "Sorry about that."

No worries on my account.  This is a critique forum, and I thought there was a bit of group think going on, so I thought I would chime in.
