This is really nice! I love the tones and the old car. I may have shot it with the background in focus also, but this works well...
Nice shot!
Linda

Like the Ist critique I would rather have the background in focus. But overall this is a great shot..

Interesting proposition with old and sharp car at first and farm behind, in sepia tones. White house at left is a little distracting.

Well done,
Enric.

first i love the color-mod...its perfect...second i disagree about having the background in focus...i would have shot it the same as you did...if the car and the background were both in focus it would have been a boring image...your selective focus and shallow DOF makes it pop...however i do agree that the white house on the left is a little distracting...maybe a little selective burning could fix that...peace***

Hi Brain.
Great composition and excellent work on the color conversion. I love the shallow DOF and the composition a lot. I agree with Jeff on the burning option. I do find the mood of this photo perfect.
TFS,
Niek
