Une superbe prise de vue mettant en valeur les d閠ails de cette vieille voiture.
J'aime beaucoup.
A magnificent recording to develop the details of this old car.
I like very much.
Bravo Jack.

Love the way this vintage car looks at us, Jack.....all the things it must have seen! The asymm compo is striking and has a very strong graphic content, with all these sloping fifties-design lines. And I like the refelctions and the almomst monochrome colourpalet too. Great job!
(What's the thingie in the left top of y'r pic?)

An interesting framing, likes this headlight which takes approximately plane, seen well for this angle.

i've been missing out on alot of your shots lately - So today is one of those days where I have to forget that I don't care about cars, and should concentrate on caring about photography ,o) I've seen a few shots of old curvy (female-shape-like ;o) cars here on TE, and I think i understand the fascination. Your framing here was really good with the lighttaking up half the frame, looks great, one nit though - you could have wiped it over witha moist cloth to get rid of all that grease ;o)
