The tree behind and the weed in front both serve to frame the car and heighten the sense of abandonment by contributing a sense of it being overgrown.

She still has a glint of shimmer in her eyes. I think you should rescue her!

Very distinguished looking.

You know, in some weird way I actually prefer these old Mercedes to the new ones... B&W works really well here. I like the low angle as well.

Jeb - you have a knack for the vintage car photos - nicely done!

When I look at this I want to see the chrome glisten. However, the sky is dominant. In MHO.

I find the tree in the background to the right a bit distracting and it takes away from the sharpness of the rest of the image.

Well, your subject has it's own wonderful arrangement of shape & form & the light is creating some intriguing shadows. I like the difference in the headlights & the windshield & most of all I like that almost-white, plain sky & the level camera angle.

B&W was a good choice for this image. The car actually has kind of a spooky feel to me.

Very nice, only the sky looks so empty and white.

Good one Jeb, I really like this shot. cool perspective and a good job converting to b&w!

I really like the perspective of this shot, the glow of the metal looks great, it really works in black and white.

Congrats on a new top 5 AND in B&W, and hey, set your preferences to show 7 across and it'll stay on your top row a little longer! Looks rather California-ish to me - I'd have not known otherwise other than you live in Pennsylvania. She looks quite elegant indeed, even in her declining state, and B&W definitely suits this well. Great angle for the shot - it's what really makes it work in my opinion.

Nice composition with the weeds in front of the headlight. I gave this a 7, and I hate car photos!

Congrats Jeb, this is a terrific angle and a nice B&W treatment. I love the little weeds/plants in the front as it makes a rather simple shot extraordinary.
Post actions
This is awesome! Love the processing!

Nice shot, Jeb. And congrats on having all top 5 above 6.0 now!
