Lovely i8 set there!

Just grabbed this after a boring motorway drive home – nice sunset in SW London for once.

Absolute banger of a shot - the desaturation so suits the monotone car and helps it stand out.

Night-times are stunning. Did I learn that shots where a static car isn't on a horizontal feels a bit off?

I am not a photographer, so there's probably all sorts wrong with this picture - but I just liked it.

In fact - what would one do with this picture?

Cost option to delete them for added lightness. (Both car and wallet.)
