Default Kicking Tires

was driving through the countryside and saw this guy checking out a new truck.

Kicking Tires

Camera Nikon D7000
Exposure 0.017 sec (1/60)
Aperture f/9.0
Focal Length 85 mm
ISO Speed 100
Exposure Bias 0 EV

I wanted him to look into the door but he would just not take directions.

I didn't realize until later that I had a slower shutter than I would have liked. I do think it came out pretty nice though.

Just made some tone adjustment to bring his face out of the shadows and removed a few distractions.

Overall I like it it's definitely an interesting shot. It seems a little bright for me, and I wish the background was more blurred as my eye kind of wanders away from your subjects.

I'm by no means an expert and could be completely wrong, but for me I think I'd have liked it framed more towards the left side giving more grass on the front end of the truck than behind... but then I'd have to see that frame to really judge.
