Feedback Please!

I would love some feedback on this picture. I know that you should not care what people say or think, but I'm curious anyway! I'm new to FAA and this seems to be a very interesting platform and forum to share hints and info from other artists. So, I hope to get a chance to develop!
Thank you so much in advance!

You know Max? I really like this shot! We have similar styles and that may be why it really kind of grabs me. I like the overall gritty, almost desaturated look to it. When I first saw it I thought, "If only that car and those fridges could talk!" Great job

Not bad but my eyes are drawn to the red circle and that is far as I get looking at it.

Jeffery: Thank you for commenting! Yes, the red circle is striking indeed!

Gary: Thank you so much! I'm checking your albums right now and I see what you mean with similar styles! I love the almost apocalyptic feeling in some of them :)

Thanks to both of you!

Striking wouldn't be more word as it is to me distracting.

Too much brightly colored stuff in the background for my taste. My eyes are drawn (and kept) away from the car.

 

I like it too, Max. :-)

I especially like the way the car seems to be edging forward and almost bulging out of frame -- almost as if it doesn't want to associate with those rusty refrigerators, even though it's really no better off than they are!

To my eye, there's a definite visual story here. It's an interesting shot -- though I would tone down the color on that red circle. I'd keep it, but make it much less intense.

Welcome to FAA!

the picture is too busy with that car cut in half. my eye locks and stays there. i'd clone out the plate, mostly because its too new and doesn't go with the shot. i'd hide that red circle. it doesn't really tell a story overall, i can see it's rusted, but it doesn't say much, maybe just the car with the building behind it. or at the very least clone out the bits - the car on the right, that thing on the wall on that side, that loop of wire, that red circle, plate etc. my eye jumps too much beyond the car.

Thank you all for taking the time commenting!

Mike: Great advices. I am a beginner in photoshop but trying, watching tutorials every day!

Wendy: Thank you, and thank you for your thoughtful comment! I will definitely think twice about that red circle and do something about it :)
