A few more Period Pieces

[B R A N D X®]

One of my best friends had just purchased a 1950 Chevy 1/2 ton and wanted some shots of his truck. My daughter tagged along and we made an afternoon of it. One of the most fun shoots I have done. This was also my first attempt at using photoshop to "relic" photo's.

And by the way......my friend uses a Gem single edge he purchased when he first started shaving. It's the only razor he's ever owned/used.:smile:

All shot with digital:

Wonderful. Thanks for posting your work.

Amazing work. It really feels like old photos. You did a great job really taking the viewer back to the 50's. Awesome work.

[dcormier]

Very nicely done.

I could swear I've seen that guy before...

you do very nice work. I find myself looking every other day or so to see if you have posted anything new.

I love the period-feel of the photos (a 1948-1950 Ford F-1 truck is on my long-term wish list--"flatheads forever!" as my father would say). Also, your daughter is a cutie, and very photogenic. I may have to return to 'real' photography as my little girl is only 8 weeks old and I'm already very jealous of my Mom's nice, new Canon Digital Rebel. Of course, she's also a natural artist, so no amount of gear could replace attention and skill. But still, it's a nice camera.

Thanks! I think I aged the photo's a *bit* much for a true 50's feel, but it's tough to know when to stop!


Very nicely done.

I think he has a bit of a Robert Duvall look about him.

Thanks!


you do very nice work. I find myself looking every other day or so to see if you have posted anything new.

Thank you....for the extreme compliment! Much appreciated!

Thanks for the kind words and you should borrow your mom's Rebel occasionally. I'm a Nikon shooter, but the Rebel is a great camera and lots of fun to use. Start shooting our little girl now....time flies and you don't want to miss a moment of it!

Wonderful photos. Found myself thinking of Peter Bogdanovich's film "Paper Moon" while I was looking @ them.

Your daughter's beautiful. Good luck in a few years. :biggrin:

Thanks for posting!

+1 The first thing I thought of was Tatum Oneil, in a Paper moon, but your daughter has great eyes! and so do you, keep up the great work, art, craft.

Looks very similar to my old photos. Only difference that I see in my old snapshots and these are the faces are much more crisp. Totally intended I was imagine, but yea, that is the only difference I see. Excellent work. I love black and white pics and this antiqued looks is a nice deviant of that. You have a gift sir.

[wtruitt]

Again, you have a gift Stu.. Tremendous!
