cinematic!
Great shot, i love this kind of images with old cars, this one is very good.
I believe, what you were going for here, was that old newspaper, retro feel that others have mentioned, and you have achieved it. Don't listen to the people who are criticizing this shot. Unless of-course that was not the effect you were going for....
Cool retro effect and interesting light...white point in middle magnetize eyes to much, but generally excellent shot!

The tones in this are great. I agree with the comments about the 30's style shot.
Great lighting - very atmospheric.
outstanding shot. perfect lighting. very gritty, i like this a lot
Lovely processing - love the 'colours'
good work, good tones.
Very very good image, i love the old cars, this one is amazing and the light on it is superb.
A simple, yet terrific picture! As others have already said, it's like seeing a still from an old gangster movie.
gorgeous! perfect for a photographer's eye
Looks like something a 'point-n-shoot' would take, what with the flash reflection and the total lack of background as a result of said flash. Sorry to be so negative but this has no place in amongst the usually gorgeous images here.
I love your post processing style..great work!!!
Where is Al Capone ?
Good light, and I like your tint ...
Well, I have to say, it's really better! :-)
And maybe you should keep the fake noise on that shot, it actually gave it a nice touch (if only applied on the entire image ;-)
wow, stunning one! i like the retroprocessing and wonderful bw!
I like the way you photo cars =) #112 is my favorite though :)

Really seems like a vintage shot, both in the tones and lighting
Love the B&W tones. Great lighting.
Your b&w treatment and the direct flash really gives the feeling of an authentic old picture. Great work.
So you found another american car.
The shot reminds me of 1930's paparazzi-style with a rough flash directly at the subject and high contrast.

I'm sorry, you know I'm your fan, but this shot...well may be, my poor TFT isn't able to find all the details "you put in the photo" ...
fantastic black & white.

Thanks! thall0s, I have removed the grain that I originally added to the sky area only. Right, its better without the confusion about noise-level.
Not fond of this one. Firstoff, the jpeg compression made some dirty areas which give a so-so overall look. Don't know whetever it's a wanted noise but at the top the render isn't so nice. Ligthing is too simple to me, looks like the fill-flash (is it?), giving a flat image and a bad exposed subject which is pretty disturbing from you. The only thing i'm into it is the effect brought by those lines on the ground leading to the car.
Simply fantastic. The shine and the slickness are wonderful!
Awesome stuff.
i love how the car is highlighted and the cracks in the pavement bring the eye right to it!
I don't usually like car shots, but this is totally cool :)
Nice subject fits with you b&w and the mood i like the texture of the ground too.
Is this a shot from the sixties ? Good effect, bravo !
