I agree, great job with the model and the vintage car. Not sure but I think the depth of field is too large. I think something narrower and from an angle more to the right would've been more striking. As it is, I think that big building is far too bright as a background, and subtracts focus from the subjects. But nice idea here!

Thanks for the input. I thought about muting the building some but decided against it since this shoot was supposed to be more about the car setting than the model anyway. I had an even bigger problem with the trains in another shot but gave it a go anyway. If the shot were about the model, I probably would have shot some more shots angled away from the car. It's good to have in mind for the shoot, if I get another chance. Thank you.

Nice to get the intention behind the image. I understand the setting now, and it's importance. Still, to me doesn't it make the whole image just look a bit flat or 2d? I mean I'm no pro, but maybe dropping the ambient lighting and exposure a few stops and then filling in the foreground with some other lighting, would make it pop a bit more? Of course hindsight is always 20/20, so kudos on this nice shot.
