Posted: Fri Jun 30, 2006 1:01 amgreat shot. the dark tones have certainly worked, they really suit the picture.
Posted: Fri Jun 30, 2006 1:03 amKeith, I think that's a lot better. In the first version the rock almost looked like a waterfall, trying to splash over the truck...
I like the tones, and the combination of faded green and rust colour. And, of course, the story it tells.
Cheers
Steffen.

Posted: Fri Jun 30, 2006 9:22 amGreat image Keith. Darkening the rock has really improved the image by taking a distracting element out.
Posted: Fri Jun 30, 2006 9:27 amKeith, i like it and is better seeing it here on rocks than have it over grown with grass, and well i think the dark look suits this picture well done.
Posted: Fri Jun 30, 2006 6:03 pmVery nice image this one. If you darkened it more and added some blue, you would even think it was moonlight.
I like the old rustbuckets (As subjects, that is)
Thanks

Where is the location of this old girl? Or is it a secret

The truck is excellent but the background is annoying. I'd be tempted to select the truck and place it into a field of wheat or something. To me it's crying out for an expansive background with rolling blue skys.
