Classic American magazine photo, excellently crafted and exquisite, showing much more in 3D than what you will see IRL

No I think in form and structure it falls way behind European standards definitely Auto Expreses.

There's no natural lighting and shading doesn't pop it doesn't grab me Dalab you know? The angles and curves need more attention more depth more resolution and things like that.

Always, on the pure and simple paper of magazines, nothing transported me to time and space like American photos, in my opinion they were and still have that I don't know what...

In this particular one, as I said, very common with them, they transmit a sensation of fast movement in your face, perhaps not the most artistic from what you say, but look for something else, I see lines of the car that can only be appreciated IRL and sensations that it's coming off the paper towards you, lenses issue I think, I love them
