My MCS at Work

I only say "at work" because this parking garage is in the building where I work.

Any comments or suggestions are welcome!

try moving it forwards or backwards about 10 feet so it's under the light rather than under a dark part. the car looks underexposed.

clean the wheels

I'm in agreement with hafid on this, you need to adjust the position of the car a bit to minimize the effect of the overhead lights. Depending on what you're going for it may be best to be right under a light or better if you had the car between two of the overhead lights. Play around with it.

Also, I'm not sure what camera you used, but if you can add filters to it, get a circular polarizer to help manage the reflections.

You might also try cropping off the very top section of the photo where we're just looking at the overexposed lights.

Thanks for the tips! Yeah, the car was definitely dirty when I did this. It was kind of spur-of-the-moment.
