This was a last minute idea... originally I didn't think I could make much out of it, but i'm pretty pleased with the result... The rain really helped this one with the headlight beams...
This is my dad's 1956 chevy... you may have seen pics of it entered in other challenges... and you will see it in more challenges to come as well =)
i've been getting some pretty low votes lately (many prople have) so i'm not expecting much... =)

Meets Challenge: 3 of 3. I almost gave this a 2 of 3, but I like how the light is being used to show what's otherwise missing from the shot, the rain.
Technical: 2 of 3. I'd almost prefer you crop a little tighter around the car, and get that street light out of the picture. Exposure and focus are good though.
Emotion: 2 of 3. The B&W and car model gives it a feel from a different time. The car doesn't appear to be moving though, since I can't see any spray from the rear tires. I'd have preferred it if the driver was actually going somewhere instead of posing.
Awe: 0 of 1.
Nicely done, it's like something straight out of a classic movie! The rain in the headlights make this shot, and the overall mood you have captured is great.
