Day 133 ~ Vintage Auto Bling
I haven't quite put my finger on why yet, but I seem to have a fetish with car faces... especially the vintage type. There's just something that draws me to them. I'm sure it probably has something to do with some suppressed, bizarre childhood experience or something. Whatever that experience is, I'm certain it's also contributing to my narcissistic habit of stepping on the gas whenever someone is going faster than me on the highway... Hey, you can't pass me!
Nevertheless, these kind of cars make great art pieces. I can see these images in a retro contemporary office, or in a stylin' urban loft on an exposed brick wall. Now, if Pottery Barn or Restoration Hardware would just call, I'd be happy to make them a deal. [grin] |
BTW, for the geekers out there, I used NIK Software's new Silver Efex Pro Photoshop plug-in for the black and white conversion. Love that you can emulate many of the old b&w films and I'm also diggin' the amount of detail and pop this software enables me to achieve. |
