I was following this hot rod through town yesterday after going to the farmer's market (yes, for photos, not veggies) and I snapped a couple of quick pics when we stopped at the red light. Notice which way he's glancing when the light turned green!
Now, I remember from my Driver's Ed class that you should look both ways especially on a one way because there's always the chance that some tool's gonna be coming from the wrong direction, and if you're not looking... Maybe he was just being a good driver.

Sweet! Gotta love cars that look like cars, not like the crappy jelly beans on wheels around these days... Fantastic splotchy overlay, really compliments the story well.

This is awesome! You are quite the master at glamming up your already-cool photos with glam and texture! This is beautifully done: subtle but nostalgic and very nice!

Nice job Roger. Looks like you took this in about 1976. Great use of the overlay

hah - pretty funny that he's checking to the right when traffic should only be coming from the left. Great capture. I really like your overlay here

The overlay here really fits the picture... it gives it that 50's or 60's look.
