    Left for dead

    I have a thing for old abandoned objects. Currious what you all think as I've had some people who have seen the print really like it, but also had a couple who didn't (wondered why someone would shoot pictures of an old car). Let me know. Thanks....

    I love the concept, I like shooting old cars as well.... see my Old Pony post in here somewhere. It looks a little over manipulated for my tastes, though.... just a personal opinion. Exposure, focus, and lighting are great.

    I like it very much, and I'm not a car enthusiast at all. But this picture has a lot of personality and mood. Great story.

    I agree with Kelly. This has great personality!

    Now, I am not too sure about the BW background... A little bit of blue in the sea/sky might have given more impact to the rust color of the color.

    Is this a true pic or a composite?

    Awesome.

    Love the use of the wide-angle. If it's one shot, lovely. If it's two (or three) shots... well, I still love it.

    Your use of color here is splendid. Exceptional. I'd also like to see an origional to see how the sky looked (for color)

    Well done!
