Very nice composition specially considering the theme of the contest it is a great entry. The blue rails with those cars go hang in hand. Very rare finding and glad it has been captured and shared here. Good focus with nice framing. Best of luck.

Yep since the trade embargo for all these decades they can get car parts or new vehicles. The cubans have to build thier own parts to keep these cars running. Cool capture. The clarity ia great. The angle of the shot if theae classic cars is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

Great image for the 'Colour Blue' contest. I love the composition and how this gorgeous blue is a balanced theme throughout with the old restored cars and the balconies. Great light to enhance the whole image. Very well done!

First thing I thought was that this must be in Cuba. Great juxtaposition of really old and sort of old. (Building and cars) The image is equally fun, quirky and mysterious.

A very nice image. I think the blue balconies and window treatments accentuate the color of the cars beautifully. Best of luck in the contest.

A beautiful & interesting picture of the vintage American Cars of the 1950s lovingly kept going by the skills of Cuban Mechanics & painted in the same shade of blue as the balconies on the house they are parked beside. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of those immaculate cars. Blue seems to be a very popular colour there! Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

1951 Chevrolet sedans like these will work FOREVER if they're treated with just a minimum of care thanks to their sturdy design and their simple engineering!
Your photo of these two automotive 'heroes of the revolution' is very enjoyable o look at,my friend! : )

    I don't think that I am "very elcome" because you muted me; but since it is a blind contest....................

    I made a mistake even commenting on something you posted but I like old cars and you did a nice job with this picture! If you'd prefer to be 'un welcome' that's all right with me!
    ( and you'll stay MUTED too! )
Comment from Chris cole


Very nice photo you posted..the cars create a very excellent main focal point..they grabbed my attention instantly..the fact that the main first car is off center, definitely creates a more harmonious and interesting focal point and since the smaller car is diagonal to the big one, it doesn't leave the image unbalanced which is excellent..it has a very unique view point..also another technique I liked is that you filled in the frame which gives the photo a more intimate and significant impact...you have taken a great photo..well done
