Nice Shot, I thought that van looked familiar. That daughter of yours must be freezing, Coley. Good work one of the better photos in this challenge and looks like the weather was on your side. PS: Happy Belated Birthday looking at the license plate sticker ;-)

Either you got lucky or you went to good lengths to set up a photograph the sets the mood of the 70's. Very good set up and even though your photograph is good technically, IMO i would of liked to see you make the picture look older than new. That's the only thing I can see that I would of like better. Maybe more noise, etc. With that said, this is a basic challenge, you could only do so much processing. And I have to say a great effort and picture. 9

I'm going to guess that this is... Coley.
Ok, I admit, I saw this van in one of your earlier works. Good photo though, very vibrant colors.

Good idea, but I think you could have done much with the composition. Kind of squashed her right up in there. Besides, the VW is not 70s.

Bad crop. It's quite tight. Would have rather seen more of the girl and the peace sign not cropped.

Seems a better fit for a 60's challenge to me.

I feel the Van dominates to much and your model seems squeezed in.

Cool Really really cool !

awesome pic, but i think the girl should be more in line with right vertical axis of the thirds
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/23/2005 02:51:23 PM
I like the idea.
Maybe a full frontal crop of the bus with the model in same position but against another background would have worked better. I would have adjusted the colors to give a faded 70's effect.

A clean van, a clean license plate, a clean girl in a clean outfit (a rare view of the 70s.) But, all the details of the composition (elements, positioning, the colors, the lighting) make for a terrific picture.

I love this picuture. I am rating it the highest. It is clear, I like the girl and the whole scene is just right for this challenge! I would like to see more from this photographer!

Good composition but very bad cropping.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

model looks a little stiff, but setup is very 70's-ish

Beautiful! great Colours! orange, green blue!

Very well captured shot, I am impressed.

(I would have preferred "give peace a chance" as the title, however.)
:o)
