The Greaser's Ghost

Like a Kustom Kulture Timebomb screaming Rockabilly Hell in primer, this 56 Ford really got my eyes screamin'! Original 292 sits under the hood, with a tripower setup no less, the Lake Pipes functional and flame throwers inside them. The interior was white pearl and red cherry tuck and roll, every J.D.'s dream.....I shoulda bought it when I had the chance....I can just picture Johnny Carroll's - Crazy Crazy Lovin' rockabilly [link] belting outta the damn speakers, cruisin' down the road as the bumper scrapes the damn asphalt! One of these days I am gonna build one! And probably soon!

It's an older shot and I have several like this one just sittin' here doing nothing, and it's been in the waiting. So went ahead, HDR'd it, and away we went!

Thoughts welcomed, print to come!

More retro photography [link] and HDR photography [link] of mine.

Thanks everyone for your feedback & comments. It is impossible for me to say thank you to everyone who leaves comments, as it takes away from me seeing YOUR work, but if you do I will swing by your page and check your work out.
Thanks!

---John

Wow...what kind of filter do you use to make everything pop like that?
A beautiful, poignant photograph that truly captures the spirit of the cars.
