I agonised over the colour on this shot for ages. It is a handheld shot taken really late in the day. The car was in the shadows, but the foliage was capturing a lot of golden sunlight. Lots of colourful reflections were also taking away from the sleek, black look of the car. It seemed that every edit I tried, made the car turn blue or the overall saturation looked really unnatural. Eventually, I decided to go down a different path and turned to a black & white. I'm really happy that I did. I think it makes the car really "pop" in the photo and stand out from the background.
