How fun! The original was great, but I love what happens when you play with them. =)

Boa tarde, as fotos são perfeitas com ou sem filtro, adoro as velharias que partilha, fico com ideia que são modelos utilizados na 2.º guerra.

You did an awesome job with this. Just the composition and choice of limiting the exposure to the front section of the car made it a success, but your edits are well chosen as well. Really like this ...

VP said...

Or how rust can be a beautiful coat of 'paint'...

Sylvia K said...

I'll go with the first one. Plain and simple.

RobertN said...

Beautiful post.

Margaret Birding For Pleasure said...

Gosh I loved the first one until I saw what you had done to the other 2, now I would not know what one to choose. All brilliant.

Christine said...

I do love rusty pictures but playing around with the photos really does add a great quality to them!

William Kendall said...

I like what you've done with the shot. This car definitely passed its best before date!

Jo said...

I love rusty cars and am featuring one in my Good Fences post tomorrow!

Lowell said...

As you know, I enjoy playing "artist" with photos. You may be drawn to rusty items but your photographic skills sure aren't rusty! Very cool!

Shammickite said...

I'm amazed someone hasn't towed this car away for some beautifying.... rusty antique cars can be turned into snazzy hot rods if you are willing to part with enough money! Just go to any Cruise Night!

TexWisGirl said...

nice find.

RedPat said...

I like the original but it is fun to play, EG!

abrianna said...

Very nice. Just something about rusty old things....

Merisi said...

Now that is a special find, gorgeous in all its rusting beauty!

Pamela Gordon said...

Oh I love that rusty old car with the white walls looking pretty fine still. Great edits!

Kay said...

Ahh, yes! Rust and Photoshop filters! Perfect pairings!

Sandi said...

This reminds me of 'Mater!

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Fun playing with you ( or at least watching HOW to play the game from an expert!). Beautiful work.

NatureFootstep said...

it´s amazing how old rusty things turns into beautiful artwork. Love it!

John @ Beans and I on the Loose said...

Cool! A luxury sedan in it's day. A work of art then and still a piece of art today, just in a different way..

Unknown said...

Wonderful picture, I love the first interpretation....

21 Wits said...

Wow, now that's a true rusty-bucket!

Stephanie said...

A really nice find. Yes, love that rust and the different post processing filters you used.

Jack said...

They all look good. I wonder how long it takes for a rusty car to rust away to nothing.

Revrunner said...

Perfect patina. :-)

Lmkazmierczak said...

Nicely done...great photo to begin with♪ http://lauriekazmierczak.com/go-go-go/

Rose said...

I love all three versions...but I think I prefer the original. It's a wonderful photo.

Pietro Brosio said...

Beautiful all three versions, interesting photos.

Indrani said...

Very interesting. I liked the treatments.

Kathy said...

Once upon a time it was a shiny object and a source of pride for its first owner. Today it's made its way to the old car graveyard. Thought provoking.

A Colorful World said...

Very cool car and treatments of the photo!

Anvilcloud said...

There's something about rust, especially rusty cars. And they lend themselves to fun processing too.

Gemma Wiseman said...

Wonderful beauty in this rust. And so love all your different edit highlights.

Stewart M said...

I do like these rusty images - hard to think that the car was once shinny and new and probably somebodies pride and joy!

Cheers - Stewart M - Jakarta (for a few more hours)

NCSue said...

Great shots - I can almost feel the rough surface of the metal.
