As I mentioned a couple of posts ago I spent a weekend driving around Sweden with some of the guys ‘n’ girls from the local photo club.
Well, here is the first shoot from that trip, it’s from a place called Töcksfors, here you can find this – I don’t know if this is the right English word for it – old car scrapping yard right in the middle of the forest – click on the geotag link below to see the exact place.
It’s a pretty big place, and there are some really old cars with moss and leaves all over, I really recommend this place if you are into making photos of old decaying cars.
For me personally it’s not that big of a kick but I did get a few decent shoots out of it

HDR made from 5 RAW exposures in Photomatrix, imported all the images into Photoshop, masked back the highlights areas, desaturated the red color, and finished it off with Topaz Adjust “Dramatic”.

Another fetish I’m having at the moment – besides the trashy black & white one - is the Polaroid/old picture effect fetish.
I’m was looking through some of my older photos – many of them are before I went digital – and tried using some Lightroom Polaroid presets (with my own minor adjustments) that I found on the web on them, and I must say that on some of them – photos that I normally would have trashed – it really works out great.
I’m not quiet sure what it is that makes them work, the composition is ok, and of course the look of the effect is really cool, I think the lomo feel the photo gets from the effect is great.
So the formula must be something like: OK composition + a Polaroid effect = a decent photo. And I think it’s best served from an analogue camera.
What do you think?
