I like 'em, wish there was a tree or something in front of the house on #5 though. @ is crooked with the grid and it looks like you used a pait filter on the head lights , but overall very nice work

Pic 4 is the one!

I have to go aganst the grain here because, in my opinion, #4 is my favorite!
It shows a creative use of reflection. Although the mirror longs a bit elongated, I find it enhances the image's other-worldy feel to it.

Outstaning photos. I keep getting the impression that, after a superb wax job, the MINI has snuck away from you to admire itself in a mirror.

I have to say number 6 is my favourite, sepia always looks good. Great photos, and your all black MINI looks awesome.

The dicotemy, I hate that the MINI isn;t between the lines, but that is exactly what makes it stand out....hmm I think I'm with you on this one.

Technically little dark and I may prefer the empty space on the "front" side of the car. But still a nice shot

My $0.02

#1 Too much dark, car almost blends in with the trees.
#2 Too much tarmac.
#3 My fav. Can't believe this commercial building has a vacant space next door.
#4 Figures Juan likes this one.
#5 See 1. (sorry)
#6 Sepia adds to the contrast well.
#7 The stripes bug me, evokes emotion, which makes it interesting.

I tried a black Mini recently. I'm used to CR, have to shift gear for black, I think it's more difficult. Keep taking pictures, you have the knack!

Ditto.
Don't you just hate how these guys (ladies, too) on NAM seem to always have show-car clean machines?

My MINI? Ha! It's a daily driver, and gets a good dose of Midwestern salt every winter. I hear that's good for cars. Gives 'em character.
