    any Porsche in a storm?

    Caught this shot in Regents Street on Saturday, whilst looking at the cars prior to the London to Brighton car rally!

    It was coming over stormy, and the reflection in the bonnet caught my eye!

    This the motor hood of teh porsche? I think you have more effect if the logo was in teh middle of the photo.
    With kind regards,

      I don't know if it's just me but it looks like a Porsche logo pasted on to a grey sky. I don't really get the sense it's a reflection from a car bonnet.

        I suppose there are several ways of looking at it and having taken many of this type of shot I'm completely biased, a Grey Porsche with white clouds reflected on it...works for me

        My only suggestion for improvement would be to process the Gold Badge a little to give it more punch.

              Thanks all!

              All critique received and understood... but it just appealed to my sense of humour with the title, and isn't really a serious attempt at photography!

              That said, I have re-worked the image, given the comments...

              WDYT?

              And yes, it is a reflection of the sky in the Porsche's bonnet (hood!).

                    Me thinks a Porsche mad enthusiast would be well happy to use it as his desktop background. It would also make a very good digital background with cars in the foreground.
