Really new, but I was proud of this, should I be? (flic.kr)

Been taking photos for about a month now. I was really happy when I got this shot but I don't have the experience to know if its good or just ok. Would love some feedback.

I wish I was a little bit more brave with the shot. It was from a parade of hotrods going down the street. They where coming down the side of the street I was taking shots on so I thought that's where I should be. I wish I had of been on the other side of the street in retrospect and ventured out in to the crosswalk for the close ups. I think the lighting would have been a lot better. A lot of the shots I took that day were really blown out because I didn't have my back to the sun.

I also wish I had the sight to know this was a good car and couple to take MULTIPLE shots of it so I had a better selection of this moment.

My main self critique of the photo is that I think I can get the same effect I was looking for while editing but with less editing. I feel like maybe it looks a little to touched up.

I did love it enough to print this one. I gave it to the couple at the car show the next day and they loved it.
