Here are two vehicals I took a picture of in my Neighborhood this after noon. One is a City Police Car and the other is a giant Catapillar tractor that only 24 hours earlier ripped down an entire house.

I made both B&W and Color because it makes them stand out. Comments please and thanks.

I like the digger one. Gives the feeling of an old suburb being torn down by something new.. and makes you wonder what will replace it.

The second shot is very very cool! I really like the angle of the photo!

The cop car has too many distractions. The edges look soft besides. The catpr is better.

Not to be picky, but the second is not a tractor, it's a hydraulic excavator. I like that picture better, but I should...I work for them. :)

A hydraulic excavator huh? Well at least I didn't call it a Land monster ;) I got a few other good angles of it but the lot was pretty small and the white garage was such an eye sore. But beggers can't be choosy, after all its not like I paid money to shoot the hydraulic excavator.

The Cop car I don't really like so I got creative with photoshop as seen below. I like the actual picture of the car but where it is, is one of the ugliest areas near me and has another house being built where that red truck is.

Of the last two edits, the first one is cool, and the 2nd one doesn't quite seem to fit. I think it's coz the blur is on a different plane to the direction of the car. Maybe a 10degree right angle change for the blur?
To me it looks like it's falling out of the sky, unless that is the intended feel of the image? :)

Woah, all very cool. Love the effects. I didn't realize at first glance that there was black and white in the original two photos. Good job, very cool. I agree with Wazza..... the angle on the fourth is a little weird. Although, it's kind of cool I guess..... very unique!

Thanks all. I will see about adjusting the angle of the Motion blur.
