Tabitha, I think the tight crop works wonderfully here. The colors, lines, and curves are graceful and full of traditional beauty. You definitely found a winner with this old Chevy, and you did a terrific job of capturing it! ..Brad

I wish it's not your official car,Tabitha,where did you find it,i know you can not miss any shot ,and that the beauty of our life...
Well done....


Roland Lacson   {K:12214} 8/15/2005
Like very much the different colors to the truck. Two things, wish image were sharper & a little more saturation to the colors. I believe this would look awesome converted to grayscale (b&w) & would take the abstract up a notch. Otherwise a great shot Tabitha, cheers.


Tabitha Woods   {K:8501} 8/15/2005
Thanks Sameh, wouldnt get far in this if it were my offical car... to many people would hold me up cause theyd want to take photos of it! :O)
I saw this driving past a mechanics workshop and stopped an asked if ok to take pics.. well rewarded for asking
regards


Tabitha Woods   {K:8501} 8/15/2005
Thanks Roland, interesting as i saturated this an unmasked sharpen alittle, i was tempted to bump it up more, but thought it would be to obvious.. Ive yet to delve into Blk&Wht, an grayscale, i will play with this in grayscale thanks
regards :O)

Tabitha Woods   {K:8501} 8/16/2005
Thanks Mike it is fun trying to show the character or beauty in these old dilapidated cars, this one being mainly ways of cropping particulars when taking the pics, as the garage is behind and loads of late model cars were parked up around it
LOL :O)

pan giannakis   {K:17104} 8/16/2005
Very vivid colours and lots of textures. Well done, very nice image.


Hugo de Wolf   {K:185017} 8/16/2005
Hi Tabitha, I always like this type of photo, because of the combination of textures, materials and the fading, weatherbeaten tones of the paint. This is no exception, and I like the composition. Also, the different hues and textures are very well captured. Very nice work. Only perhaps a bit more specific lighting could've pushed the impact of this photo....

Cheers,

Hugo


Robert Kocs   {K:89061} 8/17/2005
Wow! Beautiful textures and fantastic colors. Nice composition with stirring details. Excellent work dear Tabitha!
Best wishes!

Deve essere stata una gran bella macchina. Di questo scatto la cosa che piů mi ha colpito č la colorazione dovuta alla ruggine e all'usura del metallo. Ottimo la voro anche nel taglio che le hai dato.


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 9/9/2005
Hi Tabitha, I love the old Chevy, I'm a fan of old car anything rusty. Beautiful colors & cropping - Great image!


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 9/9/2005
PS - I agree partially with Ronald Lacson re: increased sharpening, but I wouldn't change the colors, or the contrast, they are perfect, you risk making it too overprocessed. Now it all looks natural.


Anthony Lound   {K:2596} 9/12/2005
Tabitha - I love this one. As you suspected, I dig weathered surfaces and colours that often result. Did you think about upping sharpness a bit because the potential textures in that image I'd have loved to have seen brought out a tad more? Nice work!


Tabitha Woods   {K:8501} 9/12/2005
Thanks Anthony, anything dilapidated I enjoy taking pics of.. rewarding stuff finding stacks a rust. I did play with these lots and did sharpen but didnt want to be to obvious, but your right it enhances all the yummy details better! next time I wont be so shy! :O)
Regards :O)

These types of shots are cool.
I yern to find something as old and take a pic as half as good as this.
Nice one :)
