It's called:
Play the colors...
What a banal theme (???)
What a wonderful photo !!!!!!!!!

...............

You just offered to us a lesson about the essence of a good photography...

"It's not important 'WHAT' !
It's important 'HOW' ! "

The most simplistic thing can fire into explosion - if you know how to load the gun (If you caught my drift, dear friend ?)

Delightfully smiling...george

Hi Kristaps,
The bright red colors simmers here and pops right off the page. Lovely bits of dust on the windshield nicely reflects the bright sun. This old bug is captured in great light.

Hello Kristaps,
Your photo is fine! The only suggestion that I would make is to not crop your photos too much when you are taking the shot. Zoom out a little bit and give yourself some more leeway. The digital technology makes cropping down from a larger photo much easier. In the analog (film) days I did my cropping and editing in the camera, but I like the flexibility of the digital technology much better. The lighting and the sharp details are outstanding. I drove a VW bug for several years and this brings back memories. Have a good weekend!

Hi Kristaps,
Sunny and... active ! nice oldie originating from Mexico I guess, I like its shining red color and your close framing, the way you have cut the licence plate makes it look swiss, but since we can see well what's written on it no confusion possible...
Have a nice week end JY

Kristaps,
not quite sure what your problem is regarding the composition. I like the tight crop and especially the crop on the license palte just giving the reading of "Ecuador". The PP with the high contrast is also very good.

Hi Kristaps,
such a perfect example of perfectly elegant simplicity!
IMNAAHO : there's definitely a strong Andy Warhol feel to this one (him taking this picture would see the latter ending up in the MoMA), as well as the boldness of Kim Basinger's red dress in Blind Date.
CLASSY!
I wouldn't change one bit of it, just blow it out, frame it, and hang it in full sight.
This is very elegant, don't worry!
Love it.
Have a great weekend,
Fulvio.

You must have good reasons for this crop and I find it works ok, although you crop the top to avoid some other distractions?

Good colors and a fine bug shot!

Great work, TFS

Hi Kristaps,
Lovely shot, nice tight cropping to bring out the details. I think your composition is excellent here, although I am not an expert :) I like the color.
Well done,

Hi Kristaps,

at first sorry not to check your gallery frequently. I was in a work trip and didn't have time for that. I know I've lost good ones like you present us in here. I really like your play with dark tones and bright areas. Great work on that. The composition is particular and well presented. Very well done!
Regards,
Carlos
PS: I will soon check your other works!

Hello Kristaps.

Same color as my BUG

How else to capture a car - some details are well exposed and the tradeplate is well seen as Ecuador. Thanks for sharing this well photographed car.

Jusni

yes, the colour is what makes this shot stand out, the car looks a bit like a raspberry candy. I like the crop you've chosen, "ACTIVE" and "ECUADOR" are essential here, as are the dusty windshields. there's an intelligence behind those round lights, you shou've asked for a model release form.
best,
K.
