I agree with the above. I also get the illusion that the car is lookint at me full on, while it's evident from the tyres that this is not the case. Again 400 effect? I think the first is excellent, including the white top. It's as if something is illuminating the car, stealing the show off the pretty autumn trees. The chromes also work, unlike the first picture where the reflections give the impression the bumper is white. Do you recall the aperture when you took the sideways picture? Thanks for sharing, Kostas
