I wanted this shot to appear to be from before 1940, avoiding anything modern in the picture. Not sure when steel siding came into use, and the fence looks a little too perfect for wood. The car is beautifully restored, and was a participant in this year's Muddy River Run.

Critique Club feedback:

I have to laugh and admit that as soon as I saw this I thought to myself 'looks like one of dtremain's images' before even seeing the name below it.

I think the tones work well with the subject and certainly acheive the sort of look you were going for. Obviously a straight-on shot of a car is not going to fare as well in a free study as other subjects, simply from lack of excitement. This is nice for what it is, however.

Thanks!

Too much orange if you ask me

Beautiful old car and with the sepia it makes a very nostalgic photo.

Nice shot, and good crop. The overall color tone is nice. I think I would like to see brighter highlights.

Way too flat contrast wise for my taste.
