In one of the as yet unrestored engine sheds at the NC Transportation Museum

Reminded me of an old movie scene, where the meet with the mob takes place in an old abandoned industrial building

Bang, I can see why you would draw that conclusion Chris, love it, tones detail and composition now when you gonna hand ova da stash?

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Really like what you are doing down there Chris. Excellent work.

[Pete Askew]

Brilliant Chris and what a great place. I hope they don't over-restore the place.

I trust SWMBO had you covered with a Tommy gun while you took this!

 

[Paul Lange]

That is a thing of beauty Chris.

 

[Beth Carter]

Thanks Pete - no cover as swmbo wasn't on this trip - but I made it out alive

That is a thing of beauty Chris.

Thanks Paul - that car is rather gorgeous

Thanks Beth - took a few angles before settling on this one as the best for car and backdrop

 

[Aldous Lau]

Nice shot Chris

 

[Keith Hollister]

Like it a lot, Chris. The alignment of the columns is excellent and the processing is great as well. Did you try one with a lower perspective? My first inclination is to shoot cars from as low an angle as possible, but that may not have been the best choice here because you would obviously lose a lot of the background.

Curious if you used HF or where on the car you focused, if not.

 

[Brian Moore]

This picture makes me mad!

Before I get to that though, let me first say I love how the vehicle cuts a diagonal path across the lines that lead your eye away to the back of the workshop. And the tones are beautiful. A very nice shot indeed.

However,...I do not recognize that car and I can't make out what it is!

What is it Chris?

 

[Brian Moore]

1958 Studebaker Commander!

 

[Glenn Clabo]

1958 Studebaker Commander!

So...you're not mad anymore?

 

[Pete Askew]

No, but I am. That @Brian Moore is a bloody no-it-all!

 

[Glenn Clabo]

No, but I am. That @Brian Moore is a bloody no-it-all!

@Pete Askew...You will never hear/read one bad word toward @Brian Moore from me again .... http://realphotographersforum.com/forum/attachments/glenlivet-jpg.6569/

Ha...Of course she does. Well come to think of it...she doesn't know he bought me a drink yet.

 

[Pete Askew]
