[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken at Scotty's Castle in Death Valley, so I guess it was Scotty's truck. This was originally shot on black and white film and is a scan of an old black and white print. I decided to PP this with a sepia tone effect as I felt that this would work well for the subject.

Hi David,
Very nice picture, I love that old look of the car, the grass on the foreground and details of the background, and good choice of the sepia!
Thank you.

Interesting shot. I have a photo (from someone else) of a very old car with a tree actually fully grown up through the body and windows of the car.

A classic shot but well taken; good choice of sepia; may be a bit more contrast was better (may be because of scanning).

Hi David,

You either love sepia or you don't I guess... ;-)
Hahaha, I won't say anything, since I'm alreayd a pain in the lower behind hahaha. The compo is great, but just for the idea I added a workshop - and also for the practice ;-) - with quad toning! Hope you like it. Nice shot!

Greetings! Dennis

Hi David...nice job on the duotone and the composition. Good textures.
