Guest Guest Posted February 28, 2006 You drove all night but how did you get the car on the sand as I see no tire tracks :)? Nice cloud formations and I think this image works well without the car also. I would maybe expose it a little darker. Nice image. Link to comment
merts 0 Posted February 28, 2006 Thai Ta: Thanks for your reply ;) Here is a little info ( Color version : http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=4040048) Hello to all; From Istanbul - Kilyos beach. 57 Chevy BelAir.

Guest Guest Posted February 28, 2006 I personally like the color version more myself but it seems that, according to the ratings, people like the b&w version better. I wonder if it's the idea of a classic car in a b&w setting that does it. In both cases, nice work. Link to comment
billfoster 0 Posted March 1, 2006 I love this photo ... the color and the B&W are both excellent. I think I prefer this, but I am not sure. Anyway, I love the distortion in it and the unusual angle. I'm not sure this would work with a new car, but with those huge tail fins, it really sucks you in. By the way, I have experimented with this on three or four occassions and to my experience, a B&W picture will ALWAYS rate higher than the same thing in color. Maybe people feel it is "real" photography? I don't know but it is definitely there. Anyway, love Istanbul and love your portfolio. Link to comment
rhiggins 0 Posted March 1, 2006 Your right about the B&W shots. I like this composition... can hear the ocean and the tunes playing over the AM Radio. Link to comment
mauro1 0 Posted March 1, 2006 What makes this shoot really stand out is the dramatic composition thanks to the ultra wide lens you've used. The b/w is perfect, the sky, the car, thre sand, everything is where it should be. Also the title is great. This could be a wonderful poster for my room. Link to comment
invision 0 Posted March 2, 2006 I love the amount of volume in this shot. The golden rule and diagonal dynamics are dead on!One of the rare times a vehicle shot can be defined as art. It appears so surreal and comforting against the heavy cloud backdrop! Link to comment
will king 0 Posted March 6, 2006 I prefer the color version too, but this B&W ain't too shabby either. Link to comment

dirk d. 0 Posted July 10, 2007 Hello Mert, Nice image! my only reccomend would be a title change to "drove my chevy to the levy but the levy was dry" ;o)I know its a little to long but fitting don't you agree? Keep up the great work, Best wishes! Dirk D. lightdances Photography Link to comment
syed_muhammad_noman_bukhar 0 Posted May 22, 2008 i like the b/w which is giving the dramatic look to the compo Link to comment
markjordan 0 Posted March 10, 2010 Man, that ultra-wide is sweet! I like both color and B&W versions. Nice composition and contrast. Link to comment
