"Old" is In!


Another old car sitting in a parking lot grabbed my attention as I ran errands today. There was sun flare which I liked and I learned how to keep that in color while converting the rest of the image to black and white. Another lesson learned.

These old cars have been a gold mine for you! I love the deep, rich tone of this b/w...and the colored sun spots is a neat trick! Thanks for the info, too...you sure fooled me with that car fire!

I love the lens flares! Are they simulated or real? They really add to the photo. So you learned the color/BW trick? You have to share...I want to see if it is the same trick I use once in a while! There are blueberries by my house?!
