    Default Antique Car by Lamplight

    This car is parked in the interior parking garage at the Casa Monica Hotel in St. Augustine. I took the image at night with the lights on in the garage. I used a slight PB Oil Paint filter and then Fract. Sketch. The front tire is at a slight angle - I'm not sure if that detracts from the image.
    Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated.

    Beautiful composition, Cheryl. I really like how you framed the two wheels and curved fender. Wonderful lighting... I like how your processing brought out interesting effect on the body. Excellent processing!

    Nicely done, Cheryl...I like the stark contrast between curved lines and straight lines in the image...both sets drawing your eye through the image...like the warm, almost antique tones...and the processing brought out subtle lines and textures...nicely seen and nicely done.

    Nicely done! I like the subtle fractal look and the rich colors. I'm wondering why I keep wanting the line at the top of the image to appear parallel. I doubt that it is actually parallel to the floor/ground.

    Doug, I see what you mean about the line - I could crop a little from the top but I liked the vertical silver line on the rhs. I'll see if I can crop it without losing the entire line.

    Cheryl, I like the rich colors and the Fract is a perfect touch. Good suggestion by Douglas.

    I love the rich, bold colors in the wheels and the antique brown color of the car. The fract effect looks great!
