Hi Faris,

Don't want to be blunt but this images is not in the same league as your other images, it looks like a hasty snapshot (too tightly) cropped square to get rid of some unwanted elements.

I would've used a smaller aperture and b&W to let the viewer focus on the impressive grill and let him figure out the rest based on the OOF background.
Cheers,
Jan Anne

Jan. Be blunt. How would I otherwise improve.
Right on all counts. B&W...that is more subjective on this one.

Thanks for stopping by.
Kindest regards.

I have scrolling again. With the grey revival theme. The Merc beauty can only be seen in half
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

Yes and no :)

The Merc has very little color in it but the background is a very distracting bright green, plus car is from a b&w era.

What's the era of something got to with it? Photographs of my grandkids are mostly in B&W. They are of this era.

The grass is green, the sky is generally considered blue but many do B&W with these.

But I do understand your point re: this image.

Thanks again.
