Omaha, NE

It has been pointed out that this photo would look a lot more authentic (i.e., from an era gone by) were it not for the reflection of a late model sedan in the windscreen of the lead vehicle. Just think of that as a creative anachronism -- or a stupid photographer. Actually, this was a group of old cars (all Model A Fords, as it happens) that were on display at the Remington Heights retirement community in Omaha.

PS: Crop. Colorize. Extract foreground to a new layer. Apply gaussian blur (45.0) to background and back off opacity to about 40%. Ignore obviously anachronistic reflection in windshield. :-)

Very cool shot and processing, Dennis. The modern car reflection doesn't bother me at all .. it's like the past getting a glimpse of the future.

like your work. it does have a old look both tones and cars (except for the modern looking cars on the reflection). :)
