This is noisy, over sharpened, and slightly tilted, yet somehow this whole image really work for me.
Great shot.

Was this taken in the 70's?

This would be even better if it was cropped to the same 'square' dimensions in which snapshot photos were developed during the '70's.

I like this one. My brother-in-law had a car like this. I would like it more if the main image wasn't centered--more of the sky and not so much of the road. Cropping three inches off the bottom makes this photo more appealing.

not true we are still around.....although i havn't baha'd any of mine yet......

thats for warmer climettes but anyway very nice shot could have better framing but thats all that i can see to be wrong.....would have liked it to be off to the left and more of the right seen......

Very 70's but this doesn't have much appeal to me. The tones are a little dark and I like the noise effect but it still lacks interest for me. I'd probably lose the cars on the right since they appear more modern. Good luck

Slug bug B&W no take backs. All you needed is someone hitch hiking on the side of the road.

the grain to me doesn't work at all, very distracting.
 02/23/2005 11:14:56 PM
like the style

very grainy and the subject doesn't center well with the lines of the road. 4

I wondered why your title wasn't "out of" instead of "into the past", until a second look at the road sign (too dark) showed that he was headed for Canada (instead of Vietnam?)
