Nice old truck portrait. I like the blue tones in the reflections, too.

Russell,

Love these old abandoned cars and trucks - this one is exceptional. Great color. It's important you let the bg go soft as well. Nice work! Would love to spend some time around this one. A little far of a drive though. ;-)

Very nice muted colors, and I like the composition. The only thing I would have tried is a polarizer. It would get rid of the glare on the windshield.

Terrific subject - would make an excellent B&W study, I think. Agree with the polarizer suggestion, but that is a minor detail overall.

Russ,
Great shot, I know a few Hot Rodders who would love to get their hands on some of the parts off of this beauty.
Congrats on WP.
