Advice/Comments wanted on this...
Discussion
Hi All
Personally i'm quite proud of this shot, but i'm aware that it could be better and i'd like advice/comments for anyone who would care to give it.
Mental notes i've already made are: make sure i'm shooting in RAW mode next time and try and knock the ISO down a bit to reduce noise.
First is the almost unedited version, literally all i did in PS was add the vignette and border.
Second is my first colour pop this time with a drop shadow added instead of vignette.
CANON EOS 400D & 17-85mm Lens
f/11
1/80sec
ISO400 (was quite dim at 7am!)

OK, my two penn'orth, FWIW
The cropped shot's better balanced, although I'd have the car a bit lower, so you get more of the trees and a bit less road. With the bulk of the car above the horizontal centre line, it feels a tiny bit top-heavy. Also (speaking personally), I'd put the background colour back and lose the vignette/drop shadow - they don't add anything, IMO.
