The best ones are the last one and I think the 4th one. Only if that building was kinda hovering over the top of the car. Look at tuner mags and how their shoots are set up and just pay attention to the compostion not the actual editing of the pictures. You have a great car and a nice color so you’ve got a start. Don’t be afraid to get up and close with your car. Clean is and get right next to it. You should be able to touch it while taking a picture of it. That’s how I like to shoot though.

Keep shooting, you’ll only get better.
