You can't get any more red than this! Wow. The photo is very well done. Love the dark background to bring out the red in the truck. Great detail here. Who would not this under their tree. Great work!

Artist,

You mean you opened up Noah's gift to take this photo?? lol
What a great, clear and detailed shot you've got of the Hess
fire truck. Is that the one you get for free at the Hess station??
haha Just kidding.

This makes for a perfect entry for the red contest. I like your
dark background as the truck shows up so brilliantly.

Linda

You have taken a toy and made it a very nice photo. The focus is clear and crisp. I like the background color. It oddly enhances the color of the red and does some strange things to the tires. All technical aspects of the photo are excellent. Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you for taking the time to review my work. I may have overworked it a bit. Well you can only learn by making mistakes :)

    I don't think you have overworked it. Did someone tell you that? If they did, they are crazy.
reply by the author on 18-Dec-2015
    LOL. I was just thinking to myself that maybe I should have toned it down a bit. I keep trying to find every little thing that I could have done differently :)
reply by mamamary on 18-Dec-2015
    You are over thinking it. Have your other comments been positive? I think it is very well done.

Very nice angle to the shot and presentation. The post work well thought and executed. Great colors and a very nice supporting background for the appropriate POW to the fire truck. Grand focus with just the perfect detail. Thanks for sharing and good luck.

I know your nephew Noah will love this gift. I know my grandson would have when he was younger, because I think red must the kid's favorite color. You have pictured it well, but I think it is a pity that the front wheel is disappearing into the red gradient at the bottom.

I also think your photo could have been all over sharper. Especially the crane is very blurred, but I also think this has to do with a slight over exposure of it.

The photo is however well cropped and the car has got a fine placement within the frame. A good idea and an all together well taken photo, but in need of some corrections. Still I wish you luck with the contest.
