    So, after a few computer problems and a very important lesson in backing up pictures on external hard drives, I'm back =)

    The first picture was taken right in the middle of the day. I really liked the shiny blue in this. And the second picture is mostly up for kicks and giggles because I took it at 1/6 of a second without a tripod and I'm surprised it didn't turn a big blurry mess. Thoughts?

    Lol, to me, these things are ancient.

    I think the selective colour works on the old Ford. A Model A I think? The boards seem to make what would be a boring side profile shot look a bit more interesting also.

    That second shot is nice and sharp considering the shutter speed. Nice steady hands there Gem!

    Nostalgia was last month Gem

    I like these too. I can see from the shadows of the door handles it was in the middle of the day. The colour in the first one is great.

    I like the composition in the second one.

    I hate to come in late and repeat what everyone else has already said about these two great photos.

    I agree with what was said so far. 2nd shot might also look great as a sepia shot.
