The idea of shooting at the carwash is certainly of
original by Connie Carpenter, a good friend of many...
She has not posted a photo for a long time, but she has not been forgotten...
She has impressed many of us by her images of Sasha and Katie, her lab and her friend's golden retriever.
But also I remember well her carwash shot...
made me realize photo-art can be found anywhere.
digital: this is a composite of two photos shot at a carwash nearby...,
crop, resize and added cross patch..., also, I like the following two filters below...

This kind of image gets me stirred up! It makes you more aware of your surroundings. I know I get impatient because I can't wait to get my images unloaded & see what hidden things I captured.... #1567553William C. Raco July 07, 2005
Wonderful photo, Nobibill

Hi Nobi,Darren K. Fisher September 09, 2005
Funny as soon as I seen the thumbnail I thought of Connie and her shot like this, vs her signs were on the left...LOL..See I do remember. Any how I love the effect you got here and the wonderful words you have used about Connie, I do miss her so much, her kind words and her AWESOME work. She does not really like the word awesome....LOL....Thought I would see if that brought her out again. JOB very very well done Nobi. #1818630Sandra Freyler September 26, 2005
Congratulations Nobi! Awesome image! #1887849Jill Odice October 14, 2005
