I love the old truck. It has seen its days. I noticed the Bondo used when they restored and repainted years ago. With the heavy metal they used back then, I am surprised they used so much. Nice!
Really a great shot. Lots of nice red for the week. The truck is really in pretty remarkable shape...much better than in in the same number of years. LOL. I like your angle and composition. This would be a great fixer upper!
I love old truck photos. Specially old beat up ones like this. The glare in the windshield is a bit distracting but you've definitely got a great subject here and it's sure is RED. Good luck.
Love this shot. Great old truck. Love the composition.

michael-s a very few tweeks here and there, but the real effect with the paint is that the truck was repainted years and years ago long before clearcoat finishes. Time and weather are the greatest contributors to the interesting and dynamic paint. Glad you like it. thanks.
I like this, and it certainly has wonderful character, sharp focus around the headlight and good reflection and sky. I am wondering about the subtle color change from the horizontal surfaces being more red and the vertical sides turning more magenta. I realize that's from the lighting, but it *almost* looks too saturated and maybe like you adjusted the hue a little bit? It would certainly be within the rules, just trying to learn your technique. Thanks!
