[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is another car from the old cars exhebition. I have posted several shots to TE a few months ago. I discovered this one today, while browsing my too large photo folder.
I can't remeber the car type, can anyone help?

Great B&W; it suits this old car very well. I like the details- the old fashioned clock and worn seats, the round wheel and dials. Great shot and great composition.

Yes - know the problem (TOO large folders)

Nice old car indeed - I would say a Morris - after the centre of the steering wheel - but I'm not sure.

Thanks for sharing Yitzhak.

Very nice Yitzhak. I'm not sure on the car type, wish I could help. B/W was perfect for this shot. I love the composition. Very nice photo. Great eye again. :-)

Just in time for the car commercial! Nice, clear image. I love the deep tones and contrasts. Now I want to buy the car. . .

A great shot of an old car, Yitzhak. Good use of B/W. From this angle, I am reminded of sitting in the back of my father's old Ford Anglia - but this isn't one. Well framed.

Very cool. I feel like I'm a 10 year old again. Why? Because when I was that age I used to sit right in the middle of the back seat and looking through the gap between the two front ones as my father was driving. Spent many happy hours and grew to love cars with a passion (a passion that later proved to be a bit hard on my wallet). Anyway, a wonderful shot. Well done!

I like the BW here. It looks very classic. Very good composition as you didn't show a complete symmetry.

Great B&W tone here, it even made to car looks older. Nice soft lighting, i like it. Very well captured!

like the bw effect. Well composed. I like this shot a lot.

Good image of the interior. Brings back memories of youth with double clutching with the gears to feel grown-up and cool.
Good choice of black and white, as it has that nice dark leather effect.

Hi Yitzhak, B/W picture of old car, great shot and great composition.

Very nice "retro" feel in this shot, Yitzhak. Like some other critics wrote already - reminiscent of childhood moments in dad's car. Wonderfully presented in b&w, well done.

kinda curious what kinda car is this? I love the tones well captured I like the angle something that could have been in a magazine when this car was new.

hey Yitzhak!
the photo here, really captures that retro look. it also captures the ancient-ness of the car potrayed in your composition. the cracks in the leather, the old school dash board and the now seldomely seen steel steering wheel, that spells death for anyone who slams into it.

i'm actually quite interested in what this car looks like in colour. although i'm not really sure what car make this is, for some reason it looks similar to the citroen d70 (although it is not)
