Sat pics (4-5) Backroad cruisin. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I spotted this barn off the interstate a couple years ago and finally made an effort to get a closer look. It was just a matter of lucking up on the right exit and making a few random turns. I thought it would make a decent lil backdrop for some pics.

No real reason for taking a pic on an overpass........I just thought I would.

And even further off the beaten path.

When I was making those last couple of shots I looked across the road and saw this GMC.

I'm not sure if it was lowered or deteriorating..........or both?

Spotted these out there as well.

I hope you guys like em! I'll post up some tints and effects later tomorrow.

the 69's are sad to see

Riveted1 · 04-07-2008, 07:16 AM

Ya that barn makes a cool backdrop. Lookin at those last couple of pics makes me feel like I do when I go to the animal shelter. Want to save em all, but don't have the money or the space!

wibilly · 04-07-2008, 07:25 AM

is it just me or are they chevy fenders hiding behind that gmc grill

**special-K** · 04-07-2008, 04:31 PM

Is that poison ivy climbing up that barn?You prolly picked the right time to nab those shots if it is.Nice shots at that.

LOL! Yeah that's exactly what my wife tells me every time I see one of these old trucks in a neglected state needin' some lovin'! I want to take them all home with me! Great pics once again SeeTen. Looked kinda dark in the background on that overpass pic like it was getting ready to storm. ...Joe

1LoC10 · 04-07-2008, 07:26 PM

I think the effects on these worked out pretty good.

Night vision anyone?

see ten · 04-08-2008, 12:15 AM

Last couple.

72BlckButy · 04-08-2008, 04:02 AM

Great shots Asa!

jeffspower · 04-08-2008, 04:14 AM

That GMC sure is fugly- but looks pretty solid. Did you resist asking if it was for sale?

Rust Buster · 04-08-2008, 04:18 AM

Great pics! It's probably been asked before, but what software are you using to get those effects? I love the one used on the last one.
Thanks

see ten · 04-08-2008, 04:52 AM

There wasn't anyone home where the GMC and the pair of struggling 69s were. So I just made my pics as quick as I could!

I've been using the Kodak software that came with the camera for my editing but I have recently started using the edit option on Photobucket. It has quite a selection of editing options available. That's how I did the night vision shot and the bronzed shot below it.

As always, Thanks guys! I'm glad you guys enjoy these.

70' GMC · 04-08-2008, 05:25 AM

Why didn't you make some clear shots like weapons or the motor???

Good pics. as always!

see ten · 04-08-2008, 05:35 AM

Those see through shots of the hood I did a while back were time exposures. To do those the light has to be as low as possible (or nearly non-existent) so I can keep the shutter open longer. When I happened across the place where I wanted to shoot these, there was just way to much light for anything like that. I might do some more of those style of shots at some point in the future.
