This looks like someone's wet dream... Very colourful for a chromasia shot. I like it.

This is great djn. It is encouraging to see you step out and do something a little different. It helps remind me to not get stuck doing the "comfortable" thing all the time.
For me this image is all about the gradient to the reflection. Then just when I thought I lost myself in the reflection I noticed the curves in the hood which gave such character to the reflection.
i've just got back from an evening visit to blackpool (from huddersfield) . . . and looking through some of your photos again - you make blackpool look mostly lovely; i don't know how you manage it : )

Crazy reflections!!!

As usual, your reflection work takes it to a higher level than just a shot of a car bonnet. Nice work.

hehe.. thee kind of picture i often take. naturally, i like it. good job!
but what's the point of having TVR written twice? i think it would have been better to frame it a bit higher.. to see maybe a bigger reflection?
a very good picture nevertheless

As others also have stated: The reflections make it quite perfect. Very nice!

from what i can see you were going for a straight/ central composition, but dont you think it needs a slight rotation anticlockwise? looks a bit tilted, could be just me though, :)

Fantastic reflection and framed perfectly.
I've taken shots similar to this before, I like them.
This example is really good, the red/scarlet/magenta tones work really well.
Another top shot
Smoooooth.
Wonderful colours and the reflections really make the image.
such beautiful cars =)
nice colors and composistion there.
I have to say though, that the grill looks pants

I knew you would shoot & post a reflection shot...I knew!! I hope Little Kev didn't bite your ankles while you were at the meet..:~)
Ditto on the colors; definitely make the shot even better. Great shot!
Reflections are surprisingly clear.
very funny. :-)
my heart stopped for a second. like "what the hell ? "
I kinda grew up with TVR. it's the national television in Romania.
Their logo used to look pretty much like the one in your picture. :-)
Great shot. The colors are great and I like the reflections.
Beautiful shot.

Yay! It's not a dark green beach!
(sorry, couldn't resist)
oh yea, different, colour is great.

Cool reflection shot, did you have to polish off all the drool?
nice PINK floyd effect in the reflection
This is a great and no doub't you could sell this to TVR for them to use I am sure...
Strong and vibrant colours! Nice shot.
A fantastic departure from the typical seascape!
Thanks all.
Dave: who's "Little Kev"?
Octiliniu: nope, in the UK TVR are definitely a company that makes sports cars ;-)
dacian: yes, I could have just focused on the bonnet, but I thought the grill was worth including too.
lee: yes, I've rotated the version that's up now.
Paul: no, there wasn't any drool, but I did have to clone out a few paint chips ;-)
love the colour and the reflection...too bad you have to resort to advertising the brand on such a creative shot.
Lovel colour and great reflecton, would love to get behind the wheel.
ove the twisted reflection of the buildings ... vibrant too !
