Ideal For Restoration ...

Produced for this week's Sunday Challenge, which had the theme of an end or ending ... my first submission for a few weeks.

This was based on a shot I took of an old Morris Minor that had been not just scrapped, but crushed.

I loved the way that the bonnet badge and stay, plus parts of the radiator were still evident and thought it would make for an interesting abstract.

Hopefully, you guys will agree ... the original shot can be found in the Notes.

Boy, it's good to be back!

Great idea and processing, like psychedelic art! I like also the "rusty" originial!

It is great to have you back with us again, Paul! What a beautiful entry for this week's challenge! Both versions have their merits; the inset image has wonderful textural detail, while the main shot has beautiful rich color and a more abstract feel to it! Well done!

nice one, like an airbrushed artwork from the 70s

autofantasia ^club has replied to Amazingstoker

You've taken me back somewhat with that statement my friend, to the days when no custom car, van, bike or trike was complete without at least one mural on it ... happy days! :)

Anyway, glad you like my 'retro styled art' and thanks for the fave! :)

Great how the badge was undamaged. Love the processing too.

8 years ago.

autofantasia ^club has replied to H C

Yes, I was wondering how many you'd need to crush before you could replicate that effect ... surely it can't happen like that very often?

Anyway, glad you like what I did with it! :)

Beautifully done Paul - but so sad!

Yes, it was rather sad to see one end up like that Paul, but hopefully I've created something nice from it's ugly ending and so it will live on! ;)
