About the Image(s)

We had an Antique Car Show where I live now, and I took this image of one of the hubcaps. I thought I saw a face when I was looking at it, so that is what I am trying to deliver to the viewer. In LRCC, I cropped it, turned it on an angle to add interest and then processed it in Photoshop changing colors and added the hoped for drama. I took it into Topaz Denoise to remove annoying noise in the black area.

Taken with a Nikon Z8, 24-70 mm zoom @ 70mm, 1/6000 sec @f4, ISO 8000. If I shot it now, I would shoot it at f11, but this was my first time out with the Z8. Handheld, Manual mode while sitting on my walker.

Are the colors appropriate for my made-up subject? Is the subject clear? What would you do differently? Any other suggestions? Feel free to add your own variations.
