This is the hood ornament of one of the greatest cars every built, the 1957 Chevy BelAire...passed this on a drive by this morning and could not resist.

The only flaw I found with this picture was the reflection of the trees and perhaps of the photographer. If those were not there, it would be perfect. Overall, an excellent job!
Very eye catching. You've gone for a very graphical look to this image and so I only wish the lines contained in the silver object (fin decoration?) were more perpendicular rather than at a tilt. BUT, that said, this caught my eye over and over again. So good job.
Took me a little while to get my bearings here! Nice idea, but I don't like the glare at the bottom right of the frame, and there are too many reflections in the paint for this to really work as negative space for me. 5
One of the few submissions that really fit the 'negative space' theme this time around and in my opinion one of the best. Good concept, good framing... the only minor gripes would be the shadowed uneveness on the upper portions of the hood and the bright spot on the lower right...distracts from the chrome, which is where the real lighting emphasis should be.
All in all a great submission though.
This has got to be a winner. I absolutely love this shot. You don't usually see tailfins from this angle; makes it look even more deadly than usual. My only quibble is the reflection of the tree, but this is still a 10!
