My brother and his old Nissan Patrol - shiny, shiny. (reg plate is modified by me, it looked bad when I just made it white, so I just made up the number)

C&C welcome

Did you know your brother could moonwalk?

I'm disappointed in the licence plate! Since you were changing it anyway, I think 'pentaxian' would have been better (or 'sex god' or 'big bird' or something!)

This is a good shot, but I think it would have been better if you had your brother posin' for the shot instead of walkin' out of the shot. He becomes a distractin' element this way.

I like the low viewpoint, and I actually don't mind your bro' walking out of shot - it gives the image a certain offbeat charm. (Pity about his hand though). The vapour trails are a nice detail too.

I just used the letters / numbers available in the plate which were easy to clone

And including my brother in the photo - I had two shots, one with, one without, but this one looked better. Unfortunately he looks a bit flat.

Thanks for your comments - I hope he won't sell his Patrol so I can try another attempt next year
Kind regards,
