Description Backside shot I took today of my 1966 Buick Wildcat coupe. Ran a custom script I created inside psp9 for that ever retro look and feel! Thoughts welcomed! Thanks Judy for helping me choose which shot to upload! and for being my typo manager LOL

well, i don't know crap about scripts and such in ps but i love this image whatever you've 'doctored up' on it......

even though it's in color which i'm not a big fan of hehe...

first - it really plays well compositionally...with great 'geometrics'...awesome cropping [and positioning the point of view]of the car's angles against the 'shapes' of the clouds...hell, could very well just be an abstract compo....
second - the colors contrast beautifully...the beautiful ethereal blues of the sky look stunningly with those reds/oranges in the car's paint reflections....
third - a great image out of such a simple setting and limited number of subject[s].. super duper.....

Wow, I don't think I'd seen this one before. I really like how that vertical part (sorry, I don't know cars - fender?) really draws your eye up and down the image. LOL, the little holes in the right there are awesome. What caused them?

Oh, neat, so it's a work in progress...

I figured it was parked next to a fence and there was a squirrel on the fence and someone tried to shoot the squirrel. That's just what went through my mind.

John! This photo is simply unreal. It is beyond fantastic. The balance of the car against the sky is perfection. You never stop surprising me.

firstaidkid [2005-02-13 09:26:26 +0000 UTC]

another great one - i especially love the composition here!
the contrast between the car and the sky looks pretty amazing
plus those reflections...
looks a bit like as if you see it through the eyes of a little child
man, i was so damn fascinated by cars and everything when i was a kid
my parents told me i could say which car passed by just by its sound - and i mostly was right!
wicked...

hahahahah thanks! Ya that script I made in paintshop pro seems to do the trick pretty well on most images, but on cars it really adds an old style look and feel!
