MAD MAX 2, a photo from New South Wales, East

Photographer's Note

Having just returned from a 3,800 klm road trip I thought I would present a '' FUN '' photo from the Outback Town of SILVERTON - Broken Hill which is situated in the State of New South Wales, Australia.
The movie '' MAD MAX 2 '' was filmed here & this is one of the crazy cars that was used on location - the other famous movie that was also filmed at Broken Hill was '' Pricilla '' amongst a few others.
Please enjoy & A Happy 2013 to all.

Funny it is Dawn, but I recon a very useful things on this car: a high exhaust-pipe to cross small wet-lands, water-jerrican, toys for the kids, big tires for the dusty road and more included.
Lovely spotted, maybe a paint-job would do good.
most of all, nice to see you were back from a long trip in the Outback, round to Adelaide.
Happy New Year,
Ike

Hi Dawn
Great you find something special there, that mighty chunk of iron runs out gas perhaps or just having a quick break under that intense heat of the outback from Down Under, with everything thrown in. It's well set off by deep blue sky. Lovely catch, Congrats
Kind regards

Hello
This car actually looks like a cult to me the film Mad Max with Mel Gibson. So by the way he also probably is Australian?
Great shot in excellent quality.
Yours
Joseph

Ciao cara Dawn

This is gold! What an amazing piece of film history and a great photo to illustrate it. The strong colours and warm light are unmistakably Aussie. I like how you managed the light and everything is perfectly sharp. The image has been composed superbly. Thanks for sharing.

Warmest wishes
Lisa

ourania (12287) 2013-01-14 12:13

Hello Dawn,
this is an extraordinary find, full of surprises. Your point of view and composition give a very intriguing description of the car and the equally rugged setting behind it. The overwhelming light and colours push the fascination of the subject even further. The contrast of the earthy, rusty and dusty hues with the bright blue of the sky is irresistible. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great day,
Ourania

Good to remember the unforgettable film. This one looks very curious and has attractive colors, which you explored well with good light and saturation. The parts are very attractive and make us explore the picture slowly and attentively. Well done. Regards from Brazil!

josepmarin (55011) 2013-03-12 1:10

Hi Dawn,
yes, it's a really crazy car, and I can remember the movie when I see it.
This image is very rich graphically, there are many elements to see clearly because of its great sharpness, and you have managed skillfully the light and the colors.
It's a good work.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Dawn,
Thank you for your comments. You have one beautiful picture after another in your portfolio. I usually do not critique already-critiqued photos unless I have smth different to say. When I came across this, I had to break my rule: I love cars and good pictures. Thanks for sharing.
