"Rustbucket" [Contest Finalists July 2006]
Uploaded: February 11, 2006 17:02:51
I've always wanted to capture an image of an old, rusted car. So, here it is!
Captured this image while driving through the back roads in Illinios.
Saturated, cropped, buzzed in PhotoShop.

Thanks, Janine!Norman P. Banks February 12, 2006
Hey Mike, I second all of the above and more!A great photographic shot by itself. The composition of the car in the frame shows it perfectly. Add the effect and it becomes another of what I've come to know as one of your trademark images. Perfect for Photogateway! (smile)

Yep (Greg), buzzed it a little. I figured you might like this image since because of the old abandoned car. :)Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
