jonny4now,

"Rode hard, put away wet." That applies mostly to horses, but you've got a good shot of a "hard ridden" nag of a derelict. You could have moved to the side a little and gone landscape as well, reducing the empty sky and showing a more 3/4 vehicle view. Here, I might have wanted the steering wheel to show against the sky fully in the window. Good shot, subject.

I don't think the sky looks empty really. I like the picture.

I like the sky. I don't like the deep shadows under the wheels.

I agree with jiminyClickit that some other views (3/4 for instance) might give a more interesting view of the subject. Looks to me like there are probably a lot of cool shots you could get of this.
