I see you have gone from clipping wings to clipping cars now.

I like it. Not fitting all of the limo in the shot adds to the exaggerated length of the car for me. I also like the blur of the image - gives a surveillance feeling to the shot.
The use of a camera is similar to that of a knife. You can use it to peel potatoes, or carve a flute. ~ E. Kahlmeyer
... I'm still peeling potatoes.
See, I don't get this this ALL... IMO, it's a blurry pic of a chopped limo. B&W does not equal an automatic artsy pic.
Your not alone, sometimes I struggle with the same question
Your are technically correct about this image but there was something about it that kept me
from culling it and prodded me to post it. (I'm really not a glutton for punishment )
I wish I was formally trained so that I may explain my feelings but I can not.
And then again maybe it's nothing more then you like it or you don't
^ Ahh... I had half a semester of photography, so I know a little more now than I did last year. I've had a couple that grabbed me that few would "get." So I hear ya there.
