Super.

Maybe crop in even closer?

thanks Elsa, Fons and Anthony - I didn´t expect a world class jury in  the first hour, means feel quite honoured  :)

The natural car colour is maroon, but this makes it  on a big screen, not with 1100px, will try a crop later.

Nice combination of shiny parts, try not to lose anything when cropping. The shoe polish seems less efficient than the car polish though.

very different perspective. The floor design reminds me of the food pedals of a pipe organ

Seeing ordinary things in a special way.

That is what makes photography so great.

A chic invisible man getting off the car...

Nice capture and processing, Thomas!

thanks a lot to all of you commenting so positive

and yes, compared to the car, the shoe was a little dirty, we had some light rain during the event
I tried to crop, but am not satisfied with the result, because in my eyes the polished surfaces need their space
and the spare wheel needs to be indentifiable as the "cars shoe"
