Morris, a photo from Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv

Photographer's Note

I found this beautiful old Morris Car in a small street togetger with some more old card. Probably they all belong to the same old cars collector.

I was atracted by the colors and by the excellent shape of this car.

Did you notice the small self portrait?

Very nice perspective and vibrant colors are giving life to the old classic Minor...Very well done!

I like the angle you used. The picture is well framed. Nice colors, with the contrast between the purple and the yellow. Well done!
(I see it's also a little self-portrait, with your reflection visible on the headlight :-))

This takes me right back to the early 1960's. Lovely, shot, but maybe you should have included just a wee bit more of the fender down to the wheel?

Very beautiful capture and of course nice reflection ;-)

Nice colors and details. The inclusion on your view of the licence plaate is also nice. Also like the cropping. Maybe could only be a bit more sharp.

It's funny to see your reflection.

Good framing in spite of the corner in top, the color is perfect, I like much.

A very good photo Yitzhak.
I like the way that you framed this photo, we get a good perspective of the car this way. I really enjoy the reflection of you in there and the fact that your shirt seems to be the same color than the car.

I did a little workshop for fun.

Nice colors, good angle!
Beautiful yellow there.
From my point of view, your cropping could be better, I mean, not cropping the other auto light, or perhaps a larger view of the front part. I said that, but I don't say it's an easy thing to do.

I love reflective surfaces that are not mirrors and the ways one can photograph oneself in them. This one is a very wonderful example. The self-portrait adds a little bit of humor to an already outstanding photograph. Beautiful colors, beautiful details.

Excellent composition Yitzhak. Really excellent. I think you photograph these types of objects very well. You have really made use of the different colours and it only adds to the shot. Very well done! Show me more.

Great picture w/colors and sharpness to be desired.Great collector's item.By its license plate# it was from the TLV region,dating from around the sixties(64-65).Bravo! for a well done photo!

Why this photo has gotten so many points goes beyond my understanding.

First the colour of the car isnt an original Morris Minor colour. (Not your fault)

Second the cropping could have been better. You have cropped a bit of the hood ornament, the left frontlight, the right 2turn" signal

Third the pipes or whatever it is in the background disturbs me.

Fourth the reflection of you disturbs the picture (Unless you intended to be in the photo?)

Everything than I was going to say is done on paul's workshop. I wished that I could see half of the other beam. Still it's realy a good shot. Well done Yitzhak.
