Triumph Cars

[Rebel]

I spotted a line of parked Triumph cars on the way home from the beach today, I have no idea why they were there but luckily I had my camera it seemed like a good idea to take a shot

I am not really up on cars but I think they were TR6's and TR7's.

I've tried to process it with a classic look.

Nice perspective look to the scene. There must have been some sort of Triumph car event taking place nearby.

Nice shot. Nice cars and you achieved a muted 70's look.

[Rebel]

Geoff, something like that probably - there was no-one around though, just me and the cars!

You seem to be enjoying the vintage look to your photos at the min and its working really well. +1 on what Geoff said about the perspective as well.

Looks 1970s to me. mission accomplished.

Thanks all, yea I've started to enjoy muted/pastel images - not sure why the change as its completely different to my usual saturated processing.

I've been studying a lot of other "famous" photographers lately so maybe the influence comes from there.

It also could be that doing things the same way are getting a bit monotonous. Some times a change brings a fresh new perspective to your work. if that makes sense.

Nice shot Matt.
I'm surprised no one was around. Maybe they were hiding in the bushes to see who looked over their cars.
I've been on similar runs and it's always a good time traveling in a pack of the same types of cars.
I'd make a joke about the Lucas electrics failing on one of them but that wouldn't be fair.
BTW, I believe there is a TR4 and a TR250 in there as well, but, I'm not certain as I'm not a Brit car expert by any means.
Pictures done in this manner were part of the reason I got a Nex-7 so I could use my old manual lenses which render this kind of image all on their own almost.

Thanks all

Of course it wouldn't be fair. The electrics probably failed on all of them.
