Wow! this is my best score ever! Thanks everyone for the great comments. My first Top 10! What makes this really sweet is that it was a member's challenge, - so this pic is competing with images from great minds/artists/technicians/photographers all rolled into one.
Ha Graphicfunk - I knew when I saw my score there would be a congratulatory comment by you first off. Thanks for taking the time!
I like this image..the use of sepia, the truck covered with vines, the remnants of a fence combine beautifully...also the sunlight on vehicle and shadows on ground are good.
I love this. I love the tones and the nostalgia. Composition is great. The post on the right and the truck up against the left edge gives an extra feeling of a dead end. Well done 9
I couldn't imagine a more nostalgic photo than an old truck, ocvered in weeds and vines done in an antique filter. The lighting is spot on and I love the textural variations between the old post, the leaves and brush and the truck. AWESOME 9
The sharp focus, deep DoF and noise-free presentation contrasts too much with the intended vintage look. I like the subject, but the post-processing gives the image an almost surreal feel which doesn't really work for this challenge.
