Hi Saeed not and easy picture to critique, I would join Ciprian in the cropping, somehow I like this cropping more, there are many good advises here, Close, wide, but my 50 cents are different, I would use lower angle, giving the sky more space, convert to B&W, replace the sky with more dramatic one, this is of course my humble opinion,
Very well done and keep up the good work,
Regards,

Excellent discovery and it captures, seemingly it is a German VW model 1967.
In fact, people that left it in that place never imagined that after a time my brother Saeed would appear and would transform that scrap in art, hahahaha!!
You have really captured the group in a very beautiful way, especially with the lateral arches and those small doors in the front of the wall, for where we can see almost until the horizon.
Congratulations my brother, God bless to all my Dubai family

I like the new idea you came up with Saeed. You selected 2 interesting subject my favorite car Beatle and the ruins. I think you can creat many compositions from this photo, especially by placing the car in different place to create some dramatic feeling. Maybe you can try a wider angle too.
Nice work .......waiting for more!

Joggie van Staden Joggie van Staden   {K:41700} 2/25/2006
Great work Saeed. This is a great subject with many photo opportunities! My first impression - well composed with good handling of the light situation. Looking at the angle of the shadows on the ruins it must have been close to midday to allow the full car in the sun. A harsh condition and not easy to balance - I think you've done well!

What to do to improve? I have a few suggestions: Firstly, I think the ruins and the car (as placed centrally in the foreground) compete against each other to be the main subject. Moving in closer and at a lower angle, utilising the flowing and angular element lines of the wreck would place all the emphasis on the car, with the top line of the ruins forming a dramatic skyline. Secondly, the angular, structural elements of the car (up-closer) and the interesting colours and textures of it, when juxtaposed with the earthy, repetitive textures and colours of the ruins would emphasize the different, yet similar characteristics of age and decay at the hand of the natural elements.

I truly hope that this place is easily acessable to you for I really look forward to your future uploads of this exiting subject. Kind regards.
Joggie

great composiiton
love that you make a piece of art of the old junk subject..
sure that you have here many details to show..

looks like the old car went to this wall to say
we are together... ( that is what i feel )

you choose the same angle for the 2 shots and that it is why it sees real..
as a piece of art it is great
full of meanings..
that is why " it is great"

PS. i love VW and may be it is the other reason i love this one
best regards dear Saeed

Hi Saeed! A very nice combination of two subjects which both have seen their best days. The light is just perfect to make the car stand out. Well seen and taken!

Beautiful soft light falling on the inside of the portals on the right. This contrasts nicely with the harshness of the metallic junk.

interesting image, i like the contrasts between the old building ruins and the junked car.... I think the composition is good... the only thing I would add is that there may be some better or more unique angles to work with but I like this photo a lot... nice seen and captured

Thanks Ilie
Good suggestion. I though to show both arches especially the one to the right that is where the source of light fallen on, what’s used to be called a car :)

Very imaginative, like the description too. Great lighting, but I would have liked a tighter crop focusing on the subject more.
