I really like this perspective captured here. For me, the sky reflections in the windows sell this image. The number 1030 makes me want to know more. Everything in this keeps my attention and offers the viewer something to ponder. And John, the colors are fantastic. Skills! Lets hope we see this again => featured next month.

Amazing! Looks flat...like just the wall of the car...the way the sky is reflected it looks like you're looking thru the window, not at a reflection..... Bob

Now I was going to tell you this was in EFP and I see Les has beat me to it. What's to be embarrassed about in checking out the selections in there? I like going there--just as I like going to the "Friendly Praise" section of the forum--and browsing through. I have come across so many interesting photos I would have missed otherwise. I'm sure there are hundreds of others yet, but who has time to check all entries? Anyway, back to your photo, John. I love the pov here and I love love love the clouds in the sky and the mirror . . . uhhh windows. You have a very patient wife. Give her our regards.

I love the reflections too...but also that long diagonal receding line. Between this one and the car window you shot earlier, you can easily start a series...
