Taken at a wonderful classic car show in Payson Arizona, I felt that this shot of an engine needed a little "supercharging" with a poster edges filter, to give it a robotic, futuristic look. I usually bomb when I use filters....here, I try again!

Beautiful shot of an Auburn Supercharged! If you ever get a chance to be in Auburn Indiana on Labor Day weekend, they have a Parade of Classics, including Auburns, Cords, and Duesenbergs - at the end of the parade, they park them around courthouse square and down the side streets - great photo ops! (Or, if you want to join the ACD Club ($50 annual dues, I believe), you can see them in the park as the owners prep them for the parade. )
Very art deco - a solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail. This image would have worked as a black and white as well. A perfect demonstration of the power of properly controlled light and focus. Well done.
