A Scania Veteran Truck
I’ve played around with this truck before, but felt like trying out some new stuff.
Here’s the previous version:

It’s always fun to play around with photos (or perhaps I’m just a nerd?)

Nice photo! Is it possible to switch on Likes button?
January 8, 2013 at 20:52
I’ve turned off the like button in this blog, but it’s available in the other blog: http://artishorseshit.wordpress.com

I get a like button in my toolbar when I’m on WP – do you get those?
January 9, 2013 at 01:16
Yes, I still receive likes, so I guess it must be from that button or because people are clicking like while they’re in the reader (http://wordpress.com/#!/read/following/)

That is a really interesting picture … fascinating to look at

Thanks Reb. The old, rusty truck caught my attention as I was passing by.

Interesting how editing can completely change the tone of the same pic – two different horses, eh?

Totally different feel on those two versions. I think I’ll try the same technique on some other photos as well.

I love this one much better than the previous. This one has a warm feel to it. What is the color of brown on the truck? I have the name on the tip of my tongue….I’m thinking it’s the name of a color of a shoe polish that my dad used years ago.

Difficult question to answer, because the truck isn’t mono colored, but has a wide arrange of red/brownish/pink colors, with some of the brown spots even being borderline green.
If you sample the color 3-by-3 average, one of the results you’ll find is that the color is #663300 (you’ll also find 330000 among others).
#663300 is the Hex color number and it’s based on the RGB scale (for web), while CMYK is for print.
Here’s more info on the color:

¡Me encanta!, he estado 22 años trabajando en un concesionario Scania, por lo que he visto muchos, pero ninguno como este, abrazos

Thank you very much. It’s nice to hear that a “Scania professional” likes my photo. Have a wonderful day!

I have always loved this truck. You are getting better and better at post-processing.
This is beautifully detailed.

Thank you Kriti. It’s nice to know that I’m getting better. Especially after having spent so many hours editing photos

Wow, this would look fantastic blown up as a poster! The colours are so rich and earthy and it has a nice warm vintage feel to it, very nice.

That would have been nice. I like your idea.
(P.S. Check your email)
