 Photographer’s Notes
Rode my motorcycle with some friends from Seattle to Mt. Rainier yesterday morning. On the way back, we passed this abandoned garage just north of Enumclaw. So when I arrived home, I grabbed my kit and drove back for photos.

As I finished, I noticed the parking lot where I had parked was full of vintage autos. Serendipitously, I’d found two challenge entries within 10 minutes and 50 feet of each other.

It was a long day but worth it!

Hello from the Critique club..

First of all I enjoyed the pic. This was perfect for this challenge and I think your score reflects this. I think the antique feel of this fits the subject perfectly. To me it appears that the sun was slightly harsh on this day. There are a couple white washed areas that can be slightly distracting. On this shot that is not a big problem for me. The detail (wood grain, bushes, etc.) is also very nice. I think you did a good job with it. Happy shooting.

Yep - Switched photos just before rollover. I edited the notes. Thanks for alerting me.
