  That polarizer really did the trick! You took an old truck and turned it into a piece of art. Great shot. And congrats on potd

Thanks for your kind comments folks! Yes I did re-enter this for the theme contest this month!

This was shot in RAW mode, Nikkor 28mm, 1/20 sec at F14, Cokin Blue/Gold Polarizer. For post processing I did curve adjustment and then used Craig Minielly's photoshop action called shadow soft and painted back the detail in the truck only. You can purchase Craig's outstanding actions at - http://www.craigsactions.com

Some of you wanted to see the original so here it is.
