You almost have it, the car is just too distracting for me and if you could maybe shot from the left a bit more I think you would have it. Almost though, even if the car was gone it might even work at that angle.

Agree with AL on the car/background issue. There's also the matter of the blue paint on the trunk and on the lower railing. IMO, to really 'get' a shot like is difficult. You need to have the perfect background and perfect focus. I'm not a huge fan of unfocused foregrounds; I'd like to see a sharp foreground merging to a soft background. I seem to recall some nice chunks of fence near (I think) Cambridge Battery in Point Pleasant Park that might work.

I do like the tension in the image. I would try to blur the car

My mistake has been seeking new landscapes. I should have been seeking new light.

I've been up/down, left, right, forward and back
I'm sure the right angle exists but it's been elusive.

Have you tried the old mantra: if your pictures aren't good enough, you are not close enough ...

Well just keep trying, the problem is when you get the perfect shot of it, no more nemesis. Now are sure thats what you Iggy? I probably would think that answer would be of course yes you dolt lol...... Maybe it is just waiting for you to find a new one before you beat this one just to keep you challenged?
