This belongs to a series of Photos of this car, indeed the car itself could have been taken with a 24mm or 50mm to keep it from distortion, however I found that the subject was more interesting in the context of the environment The broken fence, the wet background and of course the bridge transport us to the seventies. In addition another car was parked tightly behind this one so other angles where not as isolating. It's really a street scene, more than a car portrait and it is not staged so there was little control over the environment, forcing the angular view.
Congratulations to the winner and all the other contestants. I am extremely happy to have been mentioned among such great work.
