 Thought I'd better do a traditional overlay for the record. Taken on iPhone 4. My dad had one of these when we were little, and a Charger - bit of a hoon;)

Nice retro, vintage look to the photo - makes me think that this is an old picture of someone's beloved first car. One that took them places and held happy travels. Nice addition of the starburst on the chrome taillight - invokes strong imagery that this car was a gem.

This overlay really works with this photo. I like how it takes the focus off of the distracting elements around it and helps us focus right on the car.

Heh! We also had one of these when I was a kid. We used to ride in the back, practically hanging out, playing hand/slap type games (Miss Mary Mac).

HA HA We had a '64 Valiant. This was when the "compact car" first came about. After those huge boats, they were quite "controversial." This is a later model, but I still laugh because ours had that funky fake tire thing on the back. With it being white, it looked like a "potty seat," and that was the car's nickname.

I love how this reminds me of something in my past and I can convey a story to you. Love your edit. The starburst on the chrome of the light is a terrific touch. I like the perspective too, like we are about to hover over the car. I'm having such fun. I see you are too.
