that I'd have shot from about half the distance, so that the car was about as
close as possible to the lower left corner and the top of the frame didn't extend
much beyond the brick building.

The image was shot at ISO 100 near dusk, I was fighting for every bit
of DoF I could get given that I was shooting at f2.4 and a fairly low
shutter speed.
It almost has a LensBaby-ish DoF to it.
I like the image of the car, but the background is kind of distracting.
It would work better, I think, if the pickup truck in the background
were even more out of focus ... or better yet, not there at all.
