This is a very nice and descriptive photo. The close-up is nice, and the detail is great. I think that I can see a little crack in the windshield. That is very great detail. Awesome job.

You have such excellent story telling ability with your photos Low---the way you have used the light and the colouring, perspective and composition all tie together for a treasured shot. Well done!!

Comment from jonesirene


I love it. The fact that the colors are muted is wonderful. The entire image feels old, not just the truck. The perspective really adds to the feeling of decay. Personally I find old objects like this one more beautiful the any rose and I am glad you took the time to photograph it.

It's funny, some of the photo's like this one are just "kaput"...others, like your's are fun. Good job LR. I like the color, the focal effects, very nice.

Comment from Casteel


Hello Lowrider, the is a fantastic shot with a great dof, and perfect color... I am personally find that the image should have been framed out on the right a bit more as to not cut so close to the headlight.. overall I do think it is well done.

Comment from Clyde B.


Nice shot Low, the composition and lighting are on the money. While you were dogin' the buckshot I think the shooter hit the windshield, it seems to be cracked. You shouldn't take such chances just to get shots of all that old crap ( some more humor maybe) lol. Great job!!!

Wonder how long ago it went kaput! Perfect photo with the exact piece of the subject needed in the photo (perfect cropping an/or composition. The sun light bounces of the color just right to give great results. Amazing how those headlight seem to bee in such great shape.

    Yep, I figure it just needs a paint job and a tune up, change the oil/filter, replace the belts, little grease here and there, she's rarin' to go!! Thank you very much ben!

Nice clear sharp image, Debbie! Nice DOF too! This really takes me back as my granddad had one of these trucks in his trucking business many many years ago. Nice shot!

Comment from Mark Dean


This is a little different for you.
I think this is a wonderful photograph and the subject is superb.
I would however give the yellow a little bit of a boost in photoshop.
This I think would give the shot a little more punch : )

Comment from Rons Pen Art


A nice photo of a really old truck. It is a photo that makes you realize how times have changed and that someone used the old truck way back when. The history that must go with it. The photo has excellent lighting, great color tones. Another good photo!
