hz536n posted this photo on Flickr, mislabeled at "1960 Buicks." While technically they are 1962 Buicks, it is still an ugly stack...
I love it anyway!
Other details:
- 35mm color Kodak Ektachrome slide from 1978
- Canon AE-1
- 24mm lens

Ugly Stack of Buicks
Big Daddy Poladroid
Best known part of the `59 Chevy, bordered in a Polaroid-style frame. It's done with a program called "Poladroid," which will take any picture and make it look like it was taken with an instant camera. Check it out!

1963 Ford Galaxie
Found an archive folder on my older computer where I had stored some photos from 2000. I took quite a few at the Rod Run to The End of The World in Long Beach WA. Many of them were taken with the trusty Sony Mavica floppy disk camera, including this picture here. But at 640x480 maximum size and .8 pixel quality, the picture isn't all that hot.
So with this one, because I liked the detail of the 428 badge, I softened the image, made the photo black & white, and tweaked the contrast as best I could. I then enlarged and bordered the shot in Google's Picasa before posting on Flickr. It won't win awards but could make some good wallpaper at work!
