    Parked for winter

    Came across this car today in a field. Old Lincoln I do believe! I received my new lens from B&H today in the mail. Sigma 10-20mm f/4!

    This is my first UWA lens, and I must say I love it! What do you think of this shot? Any way I can make it better?

    C&C Welcome!

    Really nice. You can get hooked on a WA lens, be careful.

    I like the flow of the lines in the picture. Yeah the wide angle makes it.

    C&C Welcome!
    A Thompson sub-machine gun laying across the hood.
    A few windows shot out, couple bullet holes in the door...
    Maybe a few foot prints with blood trail running across the snow bank...

    HaHa sorry, I've been watching too many gangster movies. Very interesting shot.
    The Lincoln just looks so out of place in that beautiful field. Nicely done.

    On the serious side, a circular polarizing filter would have cut the glare on the windshield and deepened the sky.
    To me the snow bank is competing with the car as the primary subject. I would crop most of the snowbank.

    EXIF data shows Aperture=f4 Exp time 1/2500
    To improve overall sharpness on a landscape try an Aperture of f11 to f16
