Nice color saturation, good focus, meets challenge, good dof. Congrats!

I really like this subject. it has great colors, and the writing on the door enhances the feeling of age. you might try composing it differently, or experimenting with a different angle. other than that, I would just wait till the lighting was better to get rid of the glare off of the hood and roof (though I know it's not always possible to come back later).

Black and white would've looked nice.

If only this was outside a bar or nightclub. Great subjet though.

Good photo, overall. Color could be more saturated.

Is there another Prince George besides the one in northern British Columbia?
Beautiful shot. (my truck was older!) I did a similar (more close up) shot. I guess we could say this was the cliche of the week. To me, that says, we agree this meets the challenge well. 9 Swash

Keeping the fallen/broken tree in the background behind the truck was a good idea since it is about the same color as the body of the truck it kind of acts as an extension of the truck as the main subject. Using the greens to frame all around is nice too.

Great subject and great setting. I think you could have improved this picture with a little smaller aperature. Autool

This is a neat photo... it could be my eyes, but it looks a little oversharpened possibly... Did you experiment with this image any in black and white? good shot :) - jmsetzler

I'd like to see just the door without the grass and other distractions. As is, nicely done.

The image is great, the contrast with the background is excellent and it speaks to me. It is worthy of a 10, so thats what I gave it!

Another caption for this could have been "Past Old." :-)
