Doesn't grab me. Too much going on. Maybe blurring the background more would help. I really want to get rid of the extra woman. I think it's a Studebaker, but I want to see more of the car. I think the "message" is unresolved, too. Is he trying to sell her a car, or get a date, or both? Nothing wrong technically. It's beautifully exposed. I just think it might be too ambiguous.

I need to start asking more questions. We used to do a lot of that in this group, in fact you might remember when JeffR used to have his "How can I improve this shot" posts (sure do miss him). WJMS was good for that, too.

Yeah, I thought about trying to blur out the female, but I'm not very good with working in layers in Ps. It would have been better if she simply hadn't been in the photo.

I meant the message to be unresolved, but it didn't work, so there's a lesson there.

Thanks for the feedback!
