Taillight

Posted by Melissa W. (Warsaw, Indiana, United States) on 22 March 2008 in Transportation and Portfolio.

The taillight of an old International pickup truck.

These old cars belong to a friend of mine. Her husband collects and restores them...these are some of the leftovers. I found that photographing cars is much more challenging than it looks. I applaud those who make it look so easy.

Beautiful detail and textures you've captured here, Melissa. You've stumbled upon a real treasure trove. I'm finding that the color and sharpness of detail with the new lens is just awesome.

Nice series you have of the older vehicles. It is hard for me to pick, but I think I would say that "Busted" is slightly my favorite of those I have seen so far. Nice work.
