Thankls for the like and your kind comments about this - and other - image(s). Yes, I had a rather romantic look at nature then - almost 9 years ago ...

Thank you for liking my image of these classic American cars - which, quite obviously I too am fond of. I don't OWE one of these - far too petrol-guzzling and expensive to run - but I like the harmony in their bodies.

2 of which I have myself - the 16-35 and the 70-200 both f/4 (which are lighter to carry than their f/2.8 siblings) and I love the both! In between those 2 I use my secondhand bought Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 which is not too bad in sharpness - but it's not a Nikon!!
Why so high ISO?
25.600 seems a bit "overkill"? Don't get me wrong - one cannot see too much noise in the low-light area, but 6.400 would not have done the trick, with stationary objects ...?
Best regards,
Walter

Thank you very much, Terence Weaver - I am glad I touched a nerve there. Myself, I like most of all the cars from the late 50'is to early 60'is - I guess it's a personal feeling - beeing a 48'-model myself ...!
:o)

Thanks again, Terence - I am not sure about the model. It is a Oldsmobile though. I am not really an Amcar-expert or Amcar-owner myself. I just LOVE the old designs from 1948 up to about mid-sixties. Certainly the 50's and very early 60-s were the highlight of American car design (surprisingly coinciding With my own youth - I am a '48-model myself ...)!
These cars make Perfect motives when cought at the rigth time and angle.
Best regards

Thank you, Terence! I appreciate your kind comment!
I love these classics when they are shown off at Amcar meetings in Norway. I ususlly com home with 600 - 800 exposures.

I really like the Classic Black and White Film feel to this image with your treatment, like a contemporary Walker Evans.
The " windows on others lives" imparted by the window frames set against the fading signs really arrested my attention.
