[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken in Springfield, Oregon. Every year there is a Show 'N Shine event where owners of these wonderful old street rods get to show their beauty. This is a 1964 Chevy Impala that I found to be the most understated beautiful vehicle. The lines are classic and well...the paint in black reminded me of a classic man's suit. Of course there are all kinds of vehicles in every color of the rainbow. Of all the photos I took this one is my favorite and I intentionally took it in black and white to bring out more of the mysterious side. I only wished this vehicle had been by itself in the field...I think this would have made wonderful poster. I guesss I need to learn more about cloning and such in photoshop!

Take care,

Processing minimal: cropping and auto enhance in photoshop

A classic for sure, in "tuxedo black". Brings back good memories, use to drive those in what seems not that far ago. Good one Bettina Marie.

Hello Bettina

It's sure a good view of the Chevy Impala ( we could see that car on our road at the end of the sixties, when the U.S. bases were still in France).
I think you can make à poster with hiding the other car.
I post you a workshop.
