Shot in San Pedro, CA. A Classic Chevy car club in San pedro was having a meeting right next to the Pacific Ocean and I caught a couple of pictures while they were stopped. I wish I were a better photographer because these these cars were nice!

Your subject is fantastic, but I wonder if you could have done something more interesting with the composition/background. I guess the car isn't yours, so you didn't have much choice re location and lighting...... How about offering the owner a great photo in return for him/her posing the car for you?
Nice selective desat, really brings out that deep cherry red colour. I would have tried to go with a shallowed DOF on this one if I were you. The red is a little distracting. G'luck with this shiny red monster ;)
Was this taken during the challenge dates or in the 1950's?? Seriously, love the use of selective desat. I like the little bits of the background that also retained their color. Beautiful truck and an image that surely meets the challenge.
the truck is sweet! maybe desat all but the truck, i think selective desat would work well here. also I think a different angle or even closer up would look good.
I agree-------- beautiful! I'm a huge car/motorcycle buff, and never miss a rally if I can help it. This looks like a great get together. Love the color treatment here.
Gotta love a kustom! A true beauty indeed...a real sweet cherry of a ride...really nice light and clarity and the selective coloring is totally working here...really nice image...I'm always a sucker for a kustom. : )
