Photobucket is ok because it free... it doesn't have the tools to do things a paid sight offers... as a 50 year photographer, Ive offered advice here at times... this a generally OK Photo, but...... the sun is on the backside of the car leaving the photo side in the shadows, this leaves out so much detail. Its best to have sun behind the photog and casting a shadow less light on the subject. If you need anything done with this photo I would be happy to change it for you, If you want it resized I could do it for you.
You car is very nice but that color would pop in the right light..

I punched it up a little. Cropped it , removed the down spout ( distracting)I also resized it. Moved the subject slightly off center for effect. I will remove if you like

I need to spend some time with picture programs - it can really save your picture and add so much to it

Any photo program will do what you want.... the trick isn't the program, its the ability to know what to do. IM an amateur Photog, but after 55 years of doing it, somethings rub off. I also have an associates degree in Photography from the 80's.. hardly relevant today but I learned the basics many years ago and have been applying them in the field for a very long time. Things like back lighting, composition, rule of thirds, etc., are just a few of the many things that make for an award winning photograph.. White balance, aperture, shutter speed, ISO... things like shallow depth of field to isolate a single object on a very busy composition. IN the rule of thirds, knowing where to place the subject in the correct frame of the nine frame options of a composition.
