Just thought it looked neat so turned around and took the shot. I should have stood on the car to get a straight shot at it? Funny what you find in small old towns, like a chevy dealership in this little town. Anyone looking for a '48 fleetside chevy, they got one. Fossil Oregon.

The windows and black escape are a great contrast to the bricks.. nice to see something original and different..

it's a nice abstract. I'm always drawn to these scenes too, although i don't have many really successful images like this myself.
It's fairly well structured, but certainly would have been better if you could have centered the space between the windows and been higher. Not much you can do sometimes I understand.
Horizontal and Vertical Perspective correction in Photoshop could pretty easily fix this .
Chris, I did use the hor. vert. in ps, (if i used it right) if i used it more to straighten the right window and bottom, the top would go out of line, so thought it was better this way, or just dent the top of the car more to shoot it right. I've been on top of it with my tripod shooting a vineyard here in Grapeview where i live, so the dents are there, and i'm a hero for life, well not a hero, an idiot on top of his car taking pictures...... be remembered for life by the people passing by. "Hey, remember that idiot....."
