Some relics from the past

forrestt · 27th of October 2006 (Fri)

Greetings, I got these pics today while it was pouring rain. I think the overcast sky enhanced the colors (no color added in photoshop only levels and sharpening). The funny thing was while these pics go together as subject matter is concerned I photographed them several miles apart. I hope you like them. KC

Hey buddy, I know how you feel. By the way do you know what make (year) that truck is? KC

I like both of them and like the color far more than the black and white. It could look great in B&W but not that version ... good try though.

Wow! I love the places you captured! I had a go at the color, I hope you don't mind! I love the WNC area!!

CarolP · 31st of October 2006 (Tue)

I really like the color version of the truck. I think weeds and mud are a really appropriate setting for it!

Thanks Fellow Forum Members, Your interest and comments are appreciated. Have a great evening. KC

both shots look wonderful
the colour and the natural environment around really make the scenes so 'real' (as in... 'it happens' )
but not many of us get to see these lovely old oldies lying about just like that
lovely
