An American Classic

An American Classic

Just like Carolyn - "Happy Birthday"

**Packard Convertible**

Adjustments with PSE10 and Topaz Adjust - I then desaturated the image with NIK Silver Efex. Using an adjustment layer with a layer mask I added the color back to the American Flag.

ISO 100, 1/160 @ f4.0, EC 0 (DD)

  I see Carolyn got a kick out of the picture and the dedication Jeff. It is an American classic, beautiful lines and features. Love the black and white and then the SC on the flag. Beautiful textures and finish my friend.

  Outstanding work Jeff!. These old classics from the 20's were so far advanced for their time, even today, in terms of styling, workmanship and engineering. You retained that feel with this classic image. Love to see it color.
