Woman at Carwash

Does this look like a woman at a self-serve carwash, seriously? Had I not titled it, what would you have thought? Thanks for pointing out any strengths or weaknesses of the image.

lol! The title made me think it would be a little different... maybe a girl in some short shorts soaping down a Hummer! lol! =)

As to your question, no I don't think I would have known what this photo was without reading the title. I don't think I would have known that thing sticking out the side of her was really just a windshield wiper.

The shot is very interesting, and I like the ripple effect caused by the running water on the glass, but for me it is very distracting to have the wiper in the shot. I think it would have been better just to have the ripple effect and then a silhouette of the woman holding the hose. Maybe then I would be able to tell what it was. I think it's the windshield wiper that takes away from really making this photo shine.

I also like that you did it in black and white, I think it adds some interest and using color may have possibly been overwhelming with the ripple effect in the shot.

Very cool shot, thanks for sharing!

Thanks Amira for your review and comments. I have to agree about the wiper blade. Say, does anybody know how to remove windshield wiper blades from a black and white photo??!!??
