Nice photo of a beautiful '57 Bel Air. It is nearly an abstract, but not quite IMO. It does make me want to see the whole car, so I think the shot works.

Nice interpretation of a classic.

fc, Jade, raf - Thanks for the comments.You are sooo right about cropping the top more too. It's so annoying because - once you mention it - it is so obvious! LOL

Fine shot, Perhaps a little closer to lose the greenery top left would be an option.

Love the car, love the detailing, love the shot but.. I would have cropped right where the wiper arms meet the blade to cut out most of the window and focus attention on the headlight. As it is, my eye keeps bouncing back between the background and the foreground.

the tight crop works and shows all the detail needed.
