TAF 652 Medellín
-------------------
I do not know a lot of cars and a lot less of antique cars, but today I wanted to share a picture of this 1953 Ford truck, which is in perfect conditions. I note, is not for sale !!! :)

Upon making, I was pleased to observe how the red colour contrasted sharply with the elements silver; so I decided to implement Blur gaussiano around the backbone, to avoid areas annoying or distracting.

A little bit of history concerning its manufacturer:
-----------------------------------------------------
The Ford Motor Company (often simply called Ford and Ford's) is a multinational company American car builder based in Dearborn, Michigan, USA. It was founded in June 16, 1903 by Henry Ford in Detroit, Michigan.

Ford began working for the first time in 1903 with US $ 28,000 from 11 investors. In its early years, Ford produced a few Alphabet Cars per day at its factory located on Mack Avenue in Detroit, Michigan.

Groups of two or three men worked with each car using components manufactured in other companies. Henry Ford was 40 years old when he founded the Ford Motor Company, which continue to be one of the largest and most profitable companies in the world today, as well as being one of the few companies that survived the Great Depression of the 30's.

In 1908, the Company Ford launched the Model T Ford, whose first model was built at the Piquette Plant Manufacturing. The company moved production facilities to the Highland Park Plant (larger than the previous one) to meet the demand of the new model T. Towards 1913, the company had developed all the basic techniques of production line and mass production.

Ford created the first production line of mobile world this year, which reduced the assembly time of chassis 12 and a half hours to 2 hours and 40 minutes.

The first model designed and carried out for Europe was the Ford 8 AND HP.

Hi John,

I am not interested in cars, I don't know their models or history. But of course I recognise when I see an antique car. It is an impressive car, which I would want to drive. Well, actually, I cannot drive. But maybe I would want to be given a lift by such a car :)
Color of car, contrast with silver and black of frame are quite successful.

Congrats,
Burcu

Hola John,
Hoy también hablé de coche ;-)
En tu foto, la nitidez es estupenda y el color rojo brilla mucho, ofrecendo un contraste excelente con el segundo plano blanco y negro.
Un buneo trabajo!

Olá John,
fantástica essa máquina e a foto, sua edição ficou boa também com o jogo entre P&B e cores e o desfoque do fundo, belo trabalho.
Parabéns e Abraço!

Hello John!
Lovely red car!
Perfect clarity and beautiful effect!
Excellent composition!
Best regards!

Wow, this one really leaps off the screen! I think what you have done with the gaussian blur is very effective. I like the very close crop of this one, giving the brilliant colour a chance to dominate and making the vehicle look almost 3D. Interesting reflection in the chrome bumper bar. Well done, and interesting note.
Regards,
Andrew

Hola John
The feel of a material of metallic is really wonderful. Black border to accentuate red is also appropriate.
Splendid high definition!
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Hola John.

Bonito retrato. Me gusta. Encima los colores son brutales si señor!

Un saludo, Oscar

Hola John:

Un trabajo excelente de PP. La captura es magnífica. La nitidez y los detalles son excelentes. El fondo borroso destaca bien la figura del “car”, en definitiva es un buen trabajo; te felicito. Interesante Nota.

Un saludo.

Hola John,
La maestría del compo y todos los detalles técnicos que uno puede imaginar hace buena justicia à la belleza y el estado de conservación impecable de ese camión. La luz, el color, el DOF y la nitidez están logrados de una forma admirable. El B&N en el fondo es una buena idea, haciendo destacar aun mejor el rojo muy vivo.
Te felicito por ella.
Saludos, José.

Beautiful old fantastic car, and beautiful portrait of it from you John, compliments, I much like your choice of how to use the DOF.
Ciao
Vinicio

john
