Tribute to my car and various other photos at night

[skam]

I have to get rid of my old car due to it starting to fall apart. However, I really like this piece of junk and therefore I decided to take it out for some photos.

It's a Mercedes Benz 190D build in 1986 (I think).

I really like the 2nd and 3rd pictures. How you managed to capture the car lights on (real or photoshopped) is pretty nice.

thanks.
Not photoshopped - parking lights.

I think he means in the first few shots of his Merc. ^

I dig the shots of your car, they look great, but I'm not feeling the light-trail ones. The shot is well executed, but I find it is lacking an interesting focal point.

The high contrast between the red, black, and white in this shot make it stand out and visually appealing. (Not mine by the way).

Keep at it though, I like this stuff, and I can see that it has potential.

I think he wasn't talking about the moving cars.

I like the pictures, and the car. Old Mercs are lovely.

first time I hear/ see someone saying Merc. Where I live they say Benz if they're to lazy to say the ful name.
