Kurt,

Just to present another point of view, I too thought about 
cropping the car in the front, but decided against as it 
adds to the urban feeling of the photo.  I also thought of 
cropping just to half of the headlight to lose some highlight 
in the photo, but also decided against that.  If anything 
I want a tad more of, though not all, of the car

Steve, Was it with a 35mm (you'd be very close to the first man) 
or a 50mm lens ?
