Well...It's been a rainy and miserable day. I didn't get any further away from the house then the mailbox this morning. I wanted to come up with something for you guys regardless....Maybe these will hold ya over til I can come up with something presentable.

Probably my fave out of the bunch...

I hope you guys like em!!!

Very impressive see ten. How did you get the bowtie to come out green in the first pic and blue in the second to last?

I've always liked quality done black and white photos...I like the strong contrast.

Awesome pics! You have talent with your camera. I always like looking at your pics!

That is easily one of my favorite trucks, Great pics!!

68gmsee · 05-03-2009, 09:50 AM

Someone was bored!

Awesome pictures. The bowties ones are super shots. I also like the way you used the diffused lighting and showdoing to accentuate the different parts of the truck.

Keep up the good work...

Thanks guys! You are all way too kind! Photography is a hobby of mine that I enjoy, and I try to make sure I get out and shoot something every week. When I have a week that doesn't include any travels, the challenge is especially high for me to find something of interest to share.

If you'd like to see more of the 4x4 try doing an advanced search. For search words type in "Saturday" and user name type in "see ten". I've used that truck a good bit in my rounds of "saturday pics" so you should be able to find plenty of pictures of it that way.

The bowtie shot wasn't my favorite out of the bunch, but I did enjoy piddlin with it a bit...

Great pics! It's been rainy and miserable here all week as well, but the rain has to stop sometime! ...Joe

Nice pics. I always enjoy looking at them. One question though, what are the chances of finding a Ford Brothers license plate like that? My wife's maiden name is Ford and I thought it would be cool to get her one.

see ten · 05-03-2009, 12:16 PM

I'd say the odds of finding a plate like that are slim...There's a member here that said he bought some from the parts counter of that dealership back before it changed its name. If he ever decides to come off with one I hope he'll send it my way

. My dad pulled this plate off of a wrecked truck in a junkyard back in the early 80s. It's gotten a lot of comments through the years. One of my favorites was from a mostly toothless poorly educated shirtless hick at an Alabama cruise night... "Hey look! This trucks gotta ford plate on it! He ain't smart enough t' know that this is a chevy!" (Followed by stereotypical hick laughter).
