I think what I like about this is how the hub kinda distorts the car in a fisheye effect.
I also like the colors and the sky a lot. The image IS in the hub cap BUT the rest of the photo frames it very nice.

Location
The photo was taken at the Rhode Island European car show 'Anchor Down', all proceeds were donated to the Wounded Warrior Project.Time
The photo was taken at around 12-1pm on Sunday, June 22, 2014, I remember roasting like a chicken with the sun directly above us. There were only a few trees in the area and we were looking for a place with shade so we could cool off a bit.Lighting
The photo was taken with natural lighting, I personally prefer the beauty of natural light.Equipment
Photo was taken with a Canon EOS Rebel T3i with a Canon 50mm 1.8 lens.Inspiration
Looking for a place to sit and get out of the sun for a bit, this was the only shaded area at the whole car show. In the row of cars there were nothing but older Volkswagen Beetles. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed that you could see the reflection of another car in the wheel of the one I was sat beside.I thought it was a cool shot that showed some illusion and you could see the world from another point of view.Editing
I was still fairly new at editing and what not. Nothing much was done besides a few brightness tweaks if i can remember correctly.In my camera bag
I shoot with my Canon T3i, I absolutely love it. Its not as advanced as other bodies but it gets the job done, its lightweight and I find it a lot better than the old Nikon D70 I used to use. I never leave without my little 50mm 1.8, I literally use this amazing little lens for almost everything. A 75-300mm zoom that I dont use as much as I should, but its always nice to have just in case. A Neewer TT860 flash, Godox wireless flash trigger and a Godox Cells II all in one transceiver. A handy rocket pump and some other misc cleaning supplies, well because you never know when you will need them. A sunpak tripod. More memory cards than I could ever dream of filling up. And most importantly a few spare batteries.Feedback
Always think outside the box and never be afraid to leave your comfort zone. Even when you least expect it there is some amazing art to be made right in front of you. Try and look deeper than just the initial image you plan to photograph.
