I shot this image at an amusementpark in The Netherlands.
When i saw the lantern behind the car the idea came to me to try something with light.
I first added a color layer in PS for the light and then a color layer for black.
After that i started blending them together and played around with the dodge and burning to get the right light/dark setting where i wanted it.
Finally I added lens flare for the lantern and the headlights. Its nothing serious but it was definately a fun project to do.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Eerie! Makes me feel as though the Bates Motel is just around the corner.

Very nice effect, Jim. It's very creative and came out great. I think it looks like an old print too - almost sepia.

Jim, I think you did a great job! My impression is that you took that old car back in time where its more at home. Very cool how you "turned on those lights" Linda
