This is great. Without the copy would be perfect.
Totally agree. The visual uses the iconic JEEP grill to show what you would see (were you inside the engine). But instead of just letting it be simple, they had to go and convolute it with some weird language that turns the grill into a jail. Or something.
Sometimes the best idea is the one before the one you just had.

Doesn't even need copy or the suggestion of lamps - the grill is quite iconic :) lovely visual-idea.

Without the copy there would be no message retention, just a distant memory of a stowaway photographer on the engine block. Not convinced 'capture' is the right message for automotive, but the imagery is good.
Agreed. This would not work without the line.
BMW had the same exact concept, without the copy of course, 6 years ago with the X5...
Its not the same exact concept BMW concept is much better http://adsoftheworld.com/media/print/bmw_x5_horses?size=_original

You right, i like more BMW ads
If you tried to show prison bars. You failed. If you tried to tell that you'd go anywhere whit your truck, the line is not good. So, the line does not work with your image. But art direction is really neat. Good job Bogdan.
Maybe the copywriter was forced to write something...
He needed to justify his salary...
THERE'S NO HEAVIER BURDEN THAN A GREAT POTENTIAL
Capture is not the right line i think, as long as it's not a photocamera ad.
Does not work for me.
I think it's irrelevant and trying too hard.

Agreed.
Will Think for Salary
Love the idea. Skip the copy and the packshot/logo.
Agree with Curious pencil, with no copy no message!!
Superb. Captures the idea very well
interesting idea.
Like the ad, agree with the concept that it would be sleeker without the copy.
Less is more for sure in this ad.
(Especially for the lame slogan: capture the wild... camel?! )

lovely series.
This is the best of the bunch.
maybe the copy should be“something inside”
