Well, seems like you are the one who is taking out classic masterpieces slowly from those photo boxes in your safe :) I love this extreme composition. Choice of colors helps add 3D effect to this Chevy also. Very dynamic image! Perfect for storyboard composition.

  I enjoyed looking thru your gallery, Steven. This is one of my favorites. It has great POV, lines, colors and effects. Even the architecture in the bg fits the 50's theme. A perfect capture of this Classic!

  Steven - so glad you dropped a line on my gallery-- else I would probably not have seen yours. '57 Chevy is the ONLY car for me. Stunning shot -- the sky caps it all. And, also your fractal hit me right off. My fractal generator is so old -- it's for DOS!!!! Will have to update soon!
