I pass this location each evening on the way home from work. I had some extra time the other morning, and went this way (it takes longer than my normal route). In the evening this is fairly shadowed, so I wanted a morning shot.
Desaturated all but the red channel, and kept a slight amount of blue. Selected the window on the building and pulled the red channel down on that, as well, as it was a bit distracting.
This is a single color saturation that works. Oftentimes, I find it out of place, but this is really a nice touch. I love old rusted vehicles and this one is no acception. The setting is right and you did a great job of using the right lighting. The bricks of the building add a nice bit of dimension and texture with an architectural twist amidst the overgrown brush around the truck. Great job, Tim.
Great subject, you can have a lot of fun shooting this. I'd maybe get closer in, and try to use an angle where you get more of that grill. The crooked hood and broken headlight alone could make for an interesting shot. Also, maybe try B&W or sepia? It's not a bad shot as is, but it lacks a wow factor.
