Jesus, that escalated quickly.
You know yourself the shot isn't great but to be honest I've seen far worse in professional portfolios and magazines. The fake lens flare on the left of the shot is probably the most notable 'faux pas'.
For all the criticism about poor lighting, I don't really agree. Yes, the sky is blown and there are methods and equipment which will help you reduce and/or overcome that. However, on that day, at that time in that location you exposed for the subject, which is black. Either you or the camera did the job and brought us a well-exposed picture of the car. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, none of us were there when you took the shot and we didn't work to your limitations.
This forum is becoming a bit aggressive lately and it's annoying that the negativity is always aimed at relatively new or amateur members. If you don't like the shot, that's fine and by all means post constructive feedback. Spreading the same point over half a dozen posts isn't helping. I haven't really seen any cause for argument here.
