Old Tail Light

I went to a car show that is held every Sunday morning called Coffee & Cars.  It's a place where a lot of regular folks can bring their cars and show them off and visit with a bunch of other people that like to do the same thing.  It's a great place to make pictures of cars of all vintages and makes.  Some are restored to look like the day they came off the assembly line and others are customized to the imagination of its owner.  Then there are cars like the one above which has seen better days.  I'm sure this car will one day be restored but I kind of liked it in this weathered condition.  For this photo I adjusted the contrast using Topaz Adjust to bring out more detail in the old paint and rust.

  1. I love the colors in this shot! I never thought a rusted out car would be pretty.

  2. This is another one of my favorites. You have a creative blend of texture, color, and subject. My eye goes to the tail light and even that has a reflection that adds depth to it. Very cool!
