This Old Truck

Critique Style Requested: Standard

The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.

Description

Driving around the backroads and came across this old truck parked off the side of the road. Loved the Iris growing in the back and the rusted yellows and green of the truck.. Couldn’t really get any better access without going onto private property. Amazing what you can come across just out looking for something else.

Specific Feedback

Any feed back is welcome.

Very cool, Charlie. It looks like they added that bed to make a flower garden-very creative on their part and it created a wonderful photograph.

Thanks. They obviously intended the with the mowed grass around it.

The colors are really nice for this type of image. The truck looks planted as well as the vegitation! The only thing to my eye that I would modify would be to remove the bright spots above the left headlight. The bright tones grab my eye and detract from the truck itself.

This is such an unusual and enjoyable image, Charlie. I love the colors of the truck particularly the yellow and the rusted out roof. This is so creative of the owners of this home. In a couple of years it may look even better with the wood in the bed of the truck worn a little more. But I love the iris and the garden vibe I get from this image. What a great setting too. The owners clearly thought this out and their intentions came to fruition. If I nit pick just a little I would clone, not crop, the tree trunk on the left edge. It needs to go. I also think that there is too much grass along the bottom and you could crop a smidgen off. Other than that, I think this I really cool find and a great photo.

Thanks.Tried what was suggested and Like it better. Reposte
