Youve really managed to get a feeling of movement into this image. Nice low angle and shallow depth of field really help but the back lit dust is perfect. Maybe you could have added a slight bit of motion blur to the back of the truck so it gives a reason for the dust cloud. A great use of a toy car. well done

This is a very different image to everything else that has been submitted in this competition. Well done for seeing something abstract and unique. Lovely colours, nice lines and an unusual crop make this a really interesting image of a car. Very nice.

**This contest is open to photographers ranked 1000+ in this week’s <a href="https://www.photocrowd.com/photographer-community/">Leaderboard</a>.** Ever-evolving, the design history of the automobile is a special one, and cars from different eras strongly evoke the look and feel of those times. In a little over a hundred years cars have been through many transformations, both the mass-produced ones and the high end designs too. With luck this contest will have a bit of everything so that we can marvel at what has been achieved.

Fantastic tones and usage of colour - really works well with the age of the car. I like the various different vertical lines behind although maybe you could have made more of a feature of them by having the car closer to that warehouse. Also if you had shot this from a lower angle the reflection could have become more or a feature. But a great choice of colour palette - well done
