My wife and I were trying to find some things to take pictures of that would look old. I asked around with some of the old timers in town. They said that the old Henson place would be a good plave to start. That car has sat there since 1976. If you look real close you can see the license plate. The date it 1975. I had so many differant pictures of this car and its' buddy the houese I didn't know what to pick. This seemd to have the most content for what we can post. I wish we could post the high res photos, because then yuou could zoom in and see the plate and some of the other details. If anyone would like to see some of the other pics I took at this location let me know. I would love to share them.

This shot screams old, so well done there. I'm not sure why you chose to cut the right bumper from the framing, but I think maybe it should be included.
I like this but find the top half of the frame adds nothing (for me) and I'd look at what it's like cropped into a squarer shape, losing some of the top.
Great shot of old. A nice combo shot with the car and house. Nice detail, nice shadows. I also like the position of the subjects, because the car leads your eyes back to the house.
nope, and nobody has been home in a while i think. nice find. what color was the car? would this have looked good in color, or maybe some color? i would like to see a little more contrast here. also, the title doesn't match the photo, the photo is really about the car, the title about the house in the background. -- gr8photos (5)
this is neat :) I like the old feel here quite a bit... I believe that the exposure may be a little hot... maybe a touch more contrast or a small decrease in brightness would help out with that some :) - jmsetzler
This kind of works in b&w but it would be interesting to see it in color. While the car is mostly a darker shade of grey than the surrounding grasses they are kind of close. It does help that the house is mostly in shadow though and also that there are some shadow areas on the car itself.
