It's really quite interesting. Did you find out what that contraption in the window does? Looks like some sort of fan.

Imagine how much post processing would have been needed to achieve that "grunge" effect if it hadn't driven onto the lot looking like that.

It reads "Thermador Car Cooler". A little before my time but I think maybe a few pieces of block ice and instant air conditioning. Yes that paint on coating for the driveway needs another coat. It was everything I could do to not enhance all those colors of the truck but wanted this to be shown as I saw it. I'll play with it later. Do you think I got any of the numbers from the link?

Probably more like a quart of cool water dripping over a screen would do the A/C job.

You did fine against their list but you showed that he left out the most important one.

Interesting subject matter trumps them all. If you capture that and don't make any serious errors with the rest the list you have accomplished your goal.

I don't think any more PP is needed but if you like playing with that, go for it.

This also qualifies as a mechanical Posterior Perspectives candidate.

2. Color (sets the mood) - the pop of red on the tires is super! The tones in the truck's body are very appealing and help us appreciate the vehicle's age and condition.

4. Composition - I think I'd prefer to not have the other vehicles included.

5. Distance to subject - works for me, though I wouldn't have minded a bit closer :) I do like the perspective of looking down at it.

The bulldog is a delightful addition to the already interesting subject. In New Orleans, "lagniappe!"

Funny, I thought the dog would need to be facing the other way also, thanks for comment.

Hi Frank, good read, thanks. I like your subject matter, composition, and processing. Its great enough for me. The Bulldog adds much, no matter which way he is pointed. My grandfather had one of those window a/c things on a '50 Merc, an amazingly ugly combination. Regards Phil
