29 is dynamic and in my mind would be a grabber of a break with the traditional 3/4 view shots that are the "norm". The M-series grille is unmistakeable and I like the less-than-perfect patina of the truck being evident.
I like 38 too. Frankly, any of the shots with the clutter (distraction, if you will) of the barn or other "stuff" steals the show.[^]

Thanks guys...great input. Some agreement even .

Thanks, Ron for the critiques. I appreciate the help and agree with all your comments. (also, it's not my place...unfortunately...it's a county park, restored farm, about 5 miles from my house. It is a beautiful setting, especially since the mountain and the peacocks decided to show them selves [8D])

I ran these by my son who does a great job with a camera. He feels they might not be high enough res for the contest. I'll check on that. Worse case, I'll have to have another photo session (durn it )

Thanks a again for your help. It was fun!

what with the setting, you almost can't go wrong with this beautiful truck. Here's my curtique of the following shots;

38, D.N.P.[8D] NICE angle, dramatic shot!

11, Without the lights this excellent shot has no life. Turning the lights on would make all the difference

50, interesting scenery, nice balanced shot.

51, Nice balanced shot.

35-37, all nice shots, the angle was bland.

45-46, the barn looks like a hat. Not a complementary shot.

15, Almost perfect for a front-on shot. Lights on would have improved it.

59, nicely centered. Would have benefited from lights being on. Good background.

65-66, Too low in frame. Cropping might help.

68, Good shot, nice dramatic angle.

69, 76-77, Nice shot spoiled by a poor background.

Beautiful Peacock and hens. You have a truely beautiful place. I love the barn.

I like 0047. How can you beat that barn backdrop and the peafowl beside the old M? The only thing that could make it better is if you had a few bales of hay to load on the bed.

Check out an article from Popular Hot Rodding. They show how to take profession style photographs for publication, as well as critiquing submissions to the magazine. Personally, I like 018.
