We go driving every weekend and hope to find an old vintage beauty like this one here...But we find only sugar cane farms, cows and gators. PFFT.
Love the head on view, your sharp focus, great use of natural light and the fabulous details.
The door open the and the way nature just grew around it.
Great camera techs here Mary!
I think they have a contest on old cars..You should have entered this.
Nice work!

Powerful capture in all the technical areas of the shot. The lighting and the colors are just outstanding, natural and vivid in a very good way. Great detail over this wicked fellow as well. :-)) Wicked... LOL Not sure why that word came about! Great shot. Thanks for sharing.

Love this. Old cars, machines, or anything industrial being reclaimed by nature and at some point having been left wherever it is that last time has something magical about it (not the fact that it's technically fly tipping though haha).

This is taken at a perfect angle with great detail and also the rusted sunbleached colouring is shown really clearly. Love it.

Outstanding,Mary! : )
The battered 'skull' of this
old Dodge ( or Plymouth ) truck is just the type of image that I really enjoy!
Not much more that I need to say about it besides 'Good Show',my friend!

Yes, I would reckon that this rusty, old wreck you discovered could tell more than one or two interesting tales! Your full and central composition gives us a good look at the scene. Your exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done!

Great storytelling ability in this shot of the abandoned old vehicle, Mary. I like the angle you used for this, showing one door open and the trees providing contrast in the background. Excellent lighting and focus showing great clarity. Very nice composition. Suzanne

A very fine shot of this old derelict. I like the caved in roof and the open door as well as the buggy eyes. Great colors and a beautiful open setting.

Mary, now this is excellent!

Your clarity is top notch here. all the colors are nicely saturated and they bounce off the page at me.

Very nice piece my friend
