Subject: [Leica] how do you picture cars?

Speaking only from the perspective of someone who often looks at photographs
of automobiles - sometimes longingly - IMO the vast majority of car pictures
suffer from cluttered backgrounds. It is rare to see an automobile pictured
in a setting that not only doesn't challenge the eye to figure out where the
car is but that lets the vehicle's design speak for itself. I would,
therefore, scout a couple of suitable locations first, and try to work out
in advance most of the lighting issues that will affect the positioning of
the vehicle.
Just my 2 cents' worth (or 1/130 Euro?)
