 Interior of a vintage trailer at a campground in Julian, California. Left to right, Isabella, Sophia, and Luke (Weimaraner pup).

We were sleeping in a 1950ish Royal Spartanette Spartan trailer, the cadillac of travel trailers for its era.

Here is a pinhole photograph of the trailer.



Thanks for the great comments, guess Paul recognized the curly hair! :)

This image is magnificent. I gave it a 9 - it's so raw, real and yet completely artistic.

Great contrasts - dark and light, coldness and warmth. I wish we could see a tiny bit more detail in the shadows though. 8

One of my Nixtery 9s. Though if I were to guess I would say bspurgeon.

You have the light just right here, working both with the intensity and direction. The subjects bring much interest and the background through the window grounds the scene with a world context. Very nice.

Perfect exposure for this shot. You accomplish so much with the darkness, and the window is gorgeous.

This is a stunning work of art! A pretty good imitation of Nixter's style as well. This is my highest rated shot of the challenge. Excellent in every way!

About three or four times a year here a picture comes along that just knocks me on my derriere. This is one of those. Your youngest daughter might not much care for this when she's in her teens, but hopefully she'll come to love it later in life. :-)
