Interesting, unique scene. It looks like selective desaturation emphasizing the Beetle, but that may be how it was. There are several stories simultaneously happening here.

A super fly VW...fabulously strange...and the goat, gotta love the goat.

Nice use of sepia and color at the same time. Interesting street scene.

Wonderful juxtaposition. - bumping

One of the best images in this challenge.
It seems a little over-exposured but overall still looks very nice.
Good luck! (9)

really like the image and a little more foreground could help

nice idea, looks like taken from a movie

Highlights are a little bright, but I like the color treatment.

A good slice of life, that green VW is pretty vibrant and cool.

This is a photo that really seems to capture the character of a place. There's so much interesting contrast here: The car with the goat walking around, the green with the sepia tones, very nice.
03/14/2009 02:27:56 PMPost actions
Interesting. I'm not sure exactly what this photo is trying to say.. It is supposed to be the juxtiposition of the fancy green car to it's simple surroundings? Or just to illustrate an interesting place? I feel like I need to know more about this photo to fully appreciate it.

I love this image, a little reminder that life is different depending on where you live.
03/14/2009 10:27:51 AMPost actions
I like the sepia look and then there is this green bug in there. Nice work.
03/14/2009 09:47:39 AMPost actions
a very busy shot, you have lost some of the detail with the contrast
03/14/2009 09:18:53 AMPost actions
a nice depiction of the area, good use of tone/colour.

Really great tones & the contrast between car & goat is great
03/14/2009 02:27:18 AMPost actions
I like the old feeling look (and the goat) with the bright green color of the car.
03/13/2009 09:42:01 PMPost actions
The sparkly shiny car looks out of place in this sepia rustic neighborhood.

Good selective desat on the car, excellent street scene, very back country. 7

Nice shot, the contrast you managed withe the colors is great.

a bit too bright, would have liked to see a little more detail

I really like the selective desat on this.

That green car really stands out against the rest of the scene.
03/13/2009 10:46:05 AMPost actions
interesting scene. nice contrast between the bling-bling car and rural life. perhaps more crop at the bottom would work here?
03/13/2009 02:28:55 AMPost actions
How can you not love a 4x4 bug and a goat facing off? That's great!
03/13/2009 01:24:25 AMPost actions
Cool shot, the vivid green is prefect.
03/13/2009 12:56:13 AMPost actions
The green VW makes the goat stand out even more. This is quite a nice everyday candid.
03/12/2009 08:37:21 PMPost actions
nice bug but what were they thinking green :)
03/12/2009 08:05:05 PMPost actions
There a lot of interesting subjects in your shot.

a very photohournalistic shot !!, I like the tones in the shot. Good luck , 6

The tricked up bug feels out of place. Adds interest to the photo.
03/12/2009 03:35:27 PMPost actions
Ah, I know I have seen this before, but can't quite recall whose it is. Still think it's delightful!
03/12/2009 02:51:07 PMPost actions
Very strong cultural statement, like the processing
03/12/2009 11:48:03 AMPost actions
great shot, a little too much contrast, just love the goat with he car.... great
03/12/2009 11:39:25 AMPost actions
There is so much going on here.
03/12/2009 10:45:48 AMPost actions
Neat shot. I love how the green stands out.
03/12/2009 01:42:08 AMPost actions
Dang, that's a tricked-out bug... :-)

Wtf happened to that Volkswagen?
03/11/2009 11:25:34 PMPost actions
interesting.. the green beetle makes the shot 7

I like the grittiness and the high contrast, I would see this in a photo album you find in stores.
03/11/2009 08:35:53 PMPost actions
A bit bright but a very compelling composition.
03/11/2009 08:03:14 PMPost actions
Very busy scene, yet I always seem to pick up on the goat in front of the green VW. Cograts on a great shot.
03/11/2009 07:05:05 PMPost actions
Well processed, nice shot. May have cropped a little tighter to exclude the blown out wall on the left and a little less of the road.
03/11/2009 06:41:51 PMPost actions
That is the fanciest beetle I have ever seen. Not to mention the goat with the lagest utters that I have ever seen. This photo is full of firsts for me!

This is one of those images that I hope people stop to let their eyes wander around in. I love in the almost anachronistic feel of the shiny new car parked in the middle of a very old street. The animal in front just makes the whole image. Also, I am generally not a fan of selective desat but here it just works - it doesn't bonk you on the head screaming "I'm the only thing in color" but just very nicely and quietly highlights the context. Very well done.

Interesting juxtaposition between the car and the background. I like your use of selective color.
03/11/2009 04:49:09 PMPost actions
I love the contrast between a run-down looking street/market, and a completely pimped out VW Bug.
03/11/2009 11:26:08 AMPost actions
Color and a sence of spice in a world where things can be so dark. Like how by doing the color on the bug, it draws you too it. Then once you see it, the market allows my eyes to play. Great capture.

Slice of life shot. Good one.

Very interesting candid photo and excellent use of selective desat. Massive tonal range to the point where detail is lost on dark images like the two men in the left of the frame but the top of the building in the centre of the frame is almost blown. Great story, I looked at this for ages, best of luck.
03/11/2009 04:32:07 AMPost actions
Nothing like a pimped out Beetle and goat!! Such contrast in the street vs. the car!
