Default Attempt @ 360 Forged ad using my car

Nothing professional or published anywhere, just me farting around in photoshop, but if you were 360 Forged, would you use this as an ad?

since they are a wheel company, I would think they would want all the wheels to be in focus

My thoughts exactly. The front wheel is cut off.

Good shot. A full shot of the rim would be better. Nice looking IS nonetheless.

not exactly, go to 360 Forged's flickr page... plenty of out of focus/shallow DOF pics. depends on the composition and aperture... in this case the 'artist' wants the focus on the front wheel.
