The old motor adds great foreground interest against a rugged but beautiful backdrop, good DOF

Very atmospheric... it blends in very convincingly (as if it was part of the natural environment.

Love how it is so similar to the rocks. Looks a bit over-edited in my opinion.

Interesting subject. I don't like how the car tends to merge with the mountain because of the color/texture.

Great color match. The door open looks a little awkward but still a top shot.

I like the picture, and I'm sort of split on whether the editing is too much or not. The editing stands out, and, usually, when I notice the editing before the picture, it bothers me. I'm not sure with this one. It works wonders with the truck. Got to think about it ...

This is a beautiful picture. I hate to see neglected vehicles. Doesn't even seem like it belongs in this setting. How did it get there? Beautiful shot!

Some bold yet effective processing - could be a little over the top in the red hues but I love the composition

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1120 images, I gave 98 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 98, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.
I don't know what it is about old dead vehicles, but they seem to be a popular topic for photographs. This is one of the better ones, and I love how the colour of the rust entirely compliments the colour of the earth and rocks. The deep bly sky is a perfect foil for it. Nice job.
Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Nice find. Interesting geology fact #237: the red of the rocks is caused by oxidized iron, ie- rust. Man made or nature made, rust to rust it's all the same. This is very nice!! You are tied with two others for my top score.

strange place to find an old truck, funny how the color is the same as the rock and dirt, makes the blue sky really pop, nice PP

I have a good idea as to who took this one! I believe this is probably the same old Dodge I went looking for last summer, only to encounter roads that weren't meant for a Prius to be driving on! :)

That rock formation does sort of resemble an old Dodge pickup, doesn't it? ;-)

the blues and oranges work well here. The rust of the car doesn't stand out much against the oranges of the rocks, but very nice nonetheless

I like how the car seems to be completely integrated into the landscape, as if it too was carved out of the rock.

The dust of the red clay has given it the same color as the mountain. Nice complimentary colors with that and the vivid cobalt sky. I like it. Good mix of nature and manmade - yet they all tie in together nicely.
