As soon as I get my photoshop back on the computer, the driver will be darkened out and the cab will be adjusted.As for centering the car.... the background to the right would have ruined it. Plus the leaves didn't come out to the right, which would be lame. And if we had taken the picture from the right side of the street the shadowed side of the car would be the main part of the picture because of the sunlight.
Upper half of the pic is out of focus because that orange tree is 20 feet away... if you look above the front of the car, those trees are in focus.

the leaves are probably further back than the car is and with a smaller aperture setting, there is a shorter depth of field, resulting in the background being out of focus

It would be nice to have a car drive itself through leaves lol, but our remote controller was busted As soon as I get my photoshop back on the computer, the driver will be darkened out and the cab will be adjusted.

OK. Here's the scoop. Yes the trees in the BG are out of focus. If this is the look you like (and it should be). Use a WIDE OPEN aperture... then you will exaggerate this effect. Now, there is a guy in there and yet the shot is completely static, it might as well be parked ~ use a MUCH slower shutter speed with a pan and you will feel the speed or motion..
Yes, I know of what I speak. I spent 25 years shooting and producing car ads and commercials on location!
