Choosing Front Cover picture

This is the process of how I choose my front cover and end up with a 90 degree drift to another photo.

 The top picture is the first picture I came up with and the below is the picture I used to prefer so, what did I end up with. The first picture was kind of hilarious so I just closed it before I even begin. For the second picture I was trying to cut it and it end up badly and unsatisfying so I didn’t not go any further.

This is what I did came up with later on, I sketch out the car and try to use it as my front cover and it turned out like this. 

                                                                                               It looks more like a night club poster so i decide not to use it.

   This one the texts looks too tacky and un fitting to my theme. And the colour us not matching.

See that i should embrace the picture more since i took time taking it and its the main image so i decide to make it full page so it would look more dominant this is my 90 degree turn from what i planned at first.
