About the Image(s)

This is not exactly a closeup, but I wanted to enter it to get suggestions on if it is okay as is, or if I should crop in on parts of the image. It was taken while on a trip down the Oregon Coast a few years ago, of an old Corvallis Fire Tanker that was with a group of old trucks on display. I liked the fading yellow paint with what looks like a purplish undercoat and maybe red paint under that, and also the very rusty name plate. The radiator cap with a separate door is very unique -- I don't think that I have ever seen one like that. After some research, it is a 1940's Autocar truck. Looking at another image I took of the whole truck, it looks like the engine was accessed from inside the truck and they wanted to be able to get to the radiator cap from outside.

I did use NIK Color Efex and the Wildlife preset to bring out more color and detail. It was taken with a Nikon Camera and 18-200mm lens at 56mm, 1/250th second, f13 and ISO 400.
