'62 Ranchero

Great color, crop and contrast. Interesting car. I get the feeling of it without seeing the whole thing. Great reflections on the hood of the car and on the bumber. The texture of the ground is an interesting contrast with the smooth and shiny car. Contrast looks slightly oversharpened or a bit too harsh (I like it but it feels like it may be just a bit too much).

I like how you put the camera in context. Nice even lighting. Background is nice and simple. Overall image looks slightly flat. I think I would give it a little more darks.

Very cool shot although it doesn't evoke "old ways" for me.

Great shot. The VW in the background emphasizes old ways as well. Black and white works very well for this image.

Nice composition with the alter in the upper right with leading lines taking us there.

Great contrast. Black and white works well. Borders are nice to set it off. I might have liked something out of focus to simplify the overall image a bit.

One Hour Photo - Old School Style

Comment:
Definitely old. I think I'd like it better if there was a little more atmosphere around it rather than just a pure white background. It works but an old desk may have made it look more real instead of set up for this challenge.

Letters

Great shot! Not only does this show old ways but it evokes emotion around connecting with the soldier. Composition is well laid out to draw the eye to the soldier, along with showing the action of writing the letter. The stamps and key give it a timeless or historical feel. Black and white make it timeless. Desk is a nice dark back drop that looks very "real" to the situation. One of the reasons I like this is because it looks like you captured something real in action, not just a pure setup for this challenge as so many others have done (including myself). The more I look the more I love it! The one thing that might have added is if it were lit by candle light. That would enhance the timeless feel and give it softer light.
