I see lots of halo's around the every object in the image which spoils it for me. Otherwise it's a great sharp car with great color, shown in the setting of an event.
That is one shiny car. The colors are attractive. I don't know, but this looks like something happened in post processing or maybe camera shake during the exposure but the double outline causes my eyes to hurt. Sometimes neat image helps and sometimes it doesn't. I think in this case it doesn't.
Very cool...love the heat mirage going on in the background...and that car is just awesome. Next time, run off those people so the car gets seen in all it's glory! LOL :o)
