"Beast meets West" - Taken during a recent trip to San Francisco. Walking around Chinatown, I wanted to capture a scene that portrayed the environment in an interesting way and figured that using a car to lead the eyes into lanterns, buildings, etc., would be effective. The challenge was waiting for the a car that would pique interest and command attention. I failed on several attempts when vehicles were either obscured i.e. a psychedelic Volkswagen Bus or just did not have the, "look," I was seeking. Luckily, this Clssic Mustang came along with no cars trailing it. When I took this, I originally thought about processing in BW, but as I began experimenting with the split-toning, decided on an old cinematic feel. Did I succeed? Criticism and feedback welcomed - I have thick skin and am always eager to learn / exchange ideas.
