I don't know how I missed this one - well, probably because I didn't vote in this challenge - but this is a cool shot! Very appropriate to the challenge, from the cob-webbed subject to the grainy appearance. Nice choice!

finally someone finding some way to get the year into the photo so it really fits the challenge w/o the title. :)

i like the spider webs and the way the license plate looks old and worn.

Sorry but too grainy and dark for my taste, gave it a 4.

Off centered is a DPC fav, but the backdrop is just too dark considering the subject is black.

Found the image too grainy for my tastes, though I guess the idea of age was why the technique was used. Way out of focus, too.

Great old plate. I like the sense of context with a lost and neglected plate. Your colors also give me a feeling of age and neglect. The lack of detail and a bit more contrast leaves me wanting more and keeps this image in the average group. 5

Hey, I have a window like that (cobwebs and all), but can't say that I have a license plate dated quite that far back. :D Good luck in the challenge.

I like the idea but the composition could be a bit stronger.

Yeah, I haven't cleaned out my garage in a while either. :)

I think the sepia adds a very nostalgic feel to this photo.
