Don't normally post a lot as I don't think my pictures are up to standard but here's a couple of mine I'm proud of:

Fixed that for you. When posting from Flickr, select the BB code option rather than HTML and it will display properly in here.

Great shot, but the car's shadow gives away light source somewhat. Could it be PS'd out?

Not sure what you mean? It's backlit, sunshine streaming through the trees.

It looks as though the shadow of the rig beam is visible (if that is what that line shadow is?), perhaps that is what he was referring to? Though not sure what that has to do with light source as the direction of the shadow clearly suggests that the light is from behind the car.

Quite biggrin I can see how the shadow might seem to be part of the rig but I'm fairly certain it's a suspension part - I'll try a PS'd version to see if it looks better.

Regrettably too many people feel this way, which answers the OP question, that and the lack of critique.

That is some playground, my favourite, like the colour contrast.

Was going to single this one out myself too. Great shot and perfect timing with the bus.

All I ever seem to do at the moment is car photos, I really must get out and do some landscapes again soon.

Im never going to be a pro, but I do enjoy doing car photos.
