So, ok, I've been looking this over for the last coupla days...it really caught my attention when you posted it and I continue to like it very much. You could indeed re-work it for a more geometric "graphics art" look, but right now it just screams car to me and I rather think that's what Lamborghini is all about. In other words, way cool. -Michael

Vince-Mobile! That's what I'd put in place of the Lambrogini lettering it I could....lol.
I'm actually thinking about this though....How to curve the type, how to make the color of the type chrome looking, and how to fit it into such a tiny space? Now that would be a challenge. Best Wishes to you and all your Austin friends....(Austin isn't really part of Texas anyhow...lol)

If you want to rework it, may I suggest turning the bull into a longhorn and the name into LONGHORNS or something? I'm not serious about this, by the way. I'm just intrigued at the similarity. -- Victor

Thanks a lot, Sharon, (elips). This was shot for this Challenge and also shot before the big game, but only posted for the purposes given. However, if you like it, then I may re-work it on a more serious basis, (what you think matters to me).But currently, I have a lot of poitrait work, (for fun), to get out...at the moment I have an albino with really sunken eyes to fix somehow...I'll figure it out, (probably a re-shoot). Best Wishes and thanks, Traveller

Traveller, I really like this a lot, just the way it is. It may have been posted as a joke but it is a fine image nonetheless! ~Sharon

Hi Traveller!
Ah, bella machina! :)
The colour is really nice! I think what seems like noise are really the metallic flakes of the car paint? There seems to be a bit of structure in the body panel, probably light and shadow?
The badge/emblem is off-centre. Enough to be very noticable, not enough to follow rule of thirds. The body line leans slightly. Enough to be visible again, but not enough to work as an artistic element. Badge and body line sit in the lower third of the image, giving it some stability, but I can't help but wonder how it would look, had you taken a more taditional rule-of-thirds approach for the horizontal placement of the badge.
Cheers
Jens
