Somebody was kind enough to park this on the street outside. There were a lot of dirt specks to be cloned away from the matt black castings - several hundred, I would think. There was even a bit of rust, but don't tell the owner. There's obviously a bit of colour in the reflections in the exhaust pipes, which I left, but I did clone out a couple of bits of bright red from tail light reflectors of nearby parked cars.
Otherwise the processing was USM, resize, contrast/brightness.

Next time try a different angle. You can go closer to the heart, take a picture of one subject sharp and the rest could be blury. Maybe it might be "different".
More grey than strikingly black 7 white. This doesn't really "speak" to me, if that's not too pretentious. There are lots of interesting angles, light & shadow, detail, etc. But you haven't really made much of it, I'm afraid.
