Hi zaren! Your pictures boasted nice colours and have the kind of clean look and sharpness that I guess most are yearning to shoot. The pictures also succeeded in giving the viewer another perspective from inside the car, an experience that probably wouldn't warrant much attention to most anyway.

However, I find that the border you'd gave around the images simply doesn't do the image any justice. This is so, since the images already have a black framing, via the underexposed interior w.r.t. to the brightly-lit exterior, and adding a black border simply amplify this framing in your picture, to give the pictures an overall diminished feel. Granted that there's a white line to demarcate between the border and the frame, the overall feel has nonetheless been compromised.

Of the three shots, I prefer the last shot, for that's probably the only picture that could tell more beyond just a shot.

thanks for the comments the_cheat! interesting observation about the borders....will experiment with other borders to see if it makes an improvement. the last shot does show the car washer most clearly, but i also like the 1st two shots because it shows the process of car washing, and the gradual removal of the snow foam until the rinse.
