Need I say anything more? Print to come!

UPDATE-- I just noticed, to my amazement, she's still For Sale!

Alan Jackson-Mercury Blues

Well if i had money
Tell you what I'd do
I'd go downtown and buy a Mercury or two
Crazy bout a Mercury
Lord I'm crazy bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well the girl I love
I stole her from a friend
He got lucky, stole her back again
She heard he had a Mercury
Lord she's crazy bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well hey now mama
You look so fine
ridin round in your Mercury 49
Crazy bout a Mercury
lord I'm crazy bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well my baby went out
She didn't stay long
Bought herself a Mercury, come a cruisin home
She's crazy bout a Mercury
Yeah she's crazy bout a Mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

Well if I had money
I tell you what I'd do
I'd go downtown and buy me a Mercury or two
Crazy bout a Mercury
I'm gonna buy me a Mercury
And cruise it up and down the road

laure8354 [2007-02-08 06:07:26 +0000 UTC]

I love the subdued color palette... it gives the picture a very nostalgic feeling. I also really love the symmetry of the composition. Usually I'm not big on subjects being perfectly centered, but here it works. I think it's because if you cut the image in half, each side side has subtle differences. For example, there's more sky showing through on the right side of the picture than the left... there's a door on the left side of the building and not the right... etc. The cars are beautiful too! Great shot John!

kkart In reply to laure8354 [2007-02-27 12:25:58 +0000 UTC]

Thank you and I agree with you on center compositions usually not working, and I think here is an exception because of the perspective

Wow - is this a staged shot? IS ther really a place with classic cars called "Classical GAS?" At any rate, it so beautiful, it looks like a painting - no, an airbrush! Back in the day, this piece woulda been air-brushed!
