Live. Love. Photograph.

Well! Some time has passed since I last posted. I've been shooting film, but I finally took out my digital camera yesterday! Here is the fruit of my mania. There were a couple of smelly males in the car, so I stuck my head out the window to breathe in some cool air. I ended up going nuts with my camera, and this is what came of it. The image isn't completely in focus, but I think it adds to the sense of movement. Do you agree? In terms of editing I wanted to add more old vintage look to it. Was I successful with my editing? Is my crop too tight? What is the overall feel of the photo? All feedback is very much appreciated

Camera: Canon EOS Rebel T1i
Shutter: 1/30
Aperture: 3.5/f
Focal Length: 18mm
ISO: 200

Great image - a sense of excitement along with the movement.

I think the framing on the crop is good in that there is enough space on the LH side for the subject to 'move into'.

Thank you!

I think it's beautiful, great sense of motion and good composition. The crop is fine, but the vintage look doesn't really work for me, I think that such a lively image should have bright colors all over =P but that's just my opinion.

Thanks for sharing!

What a great shot! I can't fault it at all. I just feel everything is working together well. Sorry no critique on this shot.

Well done

Since the bright colors was suggested, I'd figured I'd give it a shot Thoughts? Which coloring is better?

Get rid of this.

Prefer the original post. Got to agree with LoveDSLR on the above, kind of spoiling the original now as well....damn!
