The PhotoChallenge this week is: The Letter A

So I am choosing "A is for Automobile". Which picture to you ladies and gents like best?

Well it's pretty and it's RED!

Same photo but in b/w because it shows off the lines of the car.

I like this because "A" is in the plate, too... and the reflections in the back window.

I like this one because of the couple by the car and because, frankly, the car gave me the creeps and that's why I took the photo.

Well....I love the first photo, jumps right out at cha! But will everyone see the "A" reference?......also I like the last one, the only draw back is her arms,(shadows) can you burn or dodge her to even out her arms? I like the effect of the evening attire with car. Good job chickie!

I agree.. The first red one.. black and white was striking, but red was better.

Beautiful! What a great eye you have. I also like the red one. And the last one, because of the people in it - what they are wearing and that you can't see their heads.

Cool....

VERY cool

I agree the first one - love that colour. Very striking. The rest are beautiful too. I've always been mildly obsessed with cars & tools since I was a tiddler. Had to sell mine recently & miss it loads!

BTW I know what you mean about objects giving you the creeps, haha!

The first one , because it reminds me of a candy apple.

I like the 2nd one, maybe a little sepia?
I also like it because the black and white fit the time period, and leaves you guessing what color it really is. There are no people wearing Gap or Old Navy clothing. Perfect color and texture balance, and yes, the lines are clean. There isn't anything else in the photo that makes you think 2004. And "A" stands for antique! Now, where's Seabiscit?

ahhhh I like all of them so much! But A is winning everywhere I've posted them so I'll probably go with A.

I do like the cars in b/w, though, just because it's sort of nostalgic

Me have crtique!

BloodRedMoon YOU TOTALLY LIKE CUT OFF THE TOP, everytime I LOOK at the photo I am reminded of how you shouldn't cut things heads off... even if it is just a little slice. I supose I'm guilty of the samething everynow and then. Excellent reflection and use of light. Wonderful placement of subject! keep'em comin'

Ah, I'm quite the photo junky, but! I have no scanner. well we do, it's a fax, but my dad won't let me hook it up to the computer cuz it's up staires and he's a facist about his stuff anyway.
