Pimping Your Ride

On Mother's Day my family met for breakfast at Ruby's 50's-style Diner. They give the kids a cardboard vintage '57 Ford Fairlane (complete with decals to apply) to entertain themselves with. Of course the actual entertainment was watching my little nephew decide just where to apply the stickers.......especially when he couldn't get them off his fingers. It was like watching a dog lick peanut butter off the roof of it's mouth when he began to attempt to shake them off onto the floor!!! Thanks for looking .... comments always welcome. :D

    Very nice, Saurora. They're all cute, but that first one is a real winner. thumb.gif

    15524779-Ti.gif - they are all very good, but the first is the winner and by a fair margin. It appears you did some selective colorization on these. If so, the effect is best (and very well done without being overdone) in the first. It appears, to me anyway, to be just a little too much in #2 and #3.

    These are fantastic shots, quite nicely done, and the selective color works well in the car here, especially in #1. Adorable!
