- Great image and a difficult one to light, I was initially drawn to this not because of the car itself but the attention that the photographer has put into placing the car in a suitable location that really adds some drama, all to often people shoot cars and give little thought to where they are positioned so very happy to award this a well deserved 1st place in the competition. Well done!

- A simple and yet stunning composition of a classic. Sometimes shooting cars is not just about the whole overall car but also having an eye for the detail and the shapes that they hold, there very design if you like of what makes them special to us visually. Well thought out and a nice capture, well deserved second place

- Great image and I really love the use of the low angle and the drama of the low cloud base against the reflections in the bodywork, well done!

- Stunning shot and very clean and dynamic capture, I like the leading lines that have been included and thought out in this shot, very well done Shooting cars on the move is never easy and this is a very good example of a clean dramatic image with plenty of space and also the real sense of movement but keeping the car sharp

- My name is Jay Spilker. I'm just an amateur photographer, who spends a lot of free time with camera in hand. This photo was taken at a farm north of the city in which I live, Lincoln, NE. I was driving by, and saw a number of older cars in the yard. I'm usually reluctant to get out and ask to photograph things on personal property, but I couldn't resist this day. It was shot with a Nikon D200, and was post processed in Photoshop.

- Great piece of detail car photography work and a very good lighting attempt of this sort of work that many think is easy until they try themselves to deal with all those reflections, a great shot that the photographer should be very proud of, well done!
