Info Lysekil is the unofficial center for old car enthusiasts on the Swedish west coast. From time to time you come across old beautiful cars and owners who let you do a mini photo session. This 1965 Pontiac and me happened to be visiting the same marina. Spots are in the now aging original paint and not dust spots. -- Cart (talk) 13:29, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
Abstain as author, but I do love how this view shows off the lines, curves and bulbous shapes of this aging beauty without showing any modern additions (registration plate, tyres, replaced glass, etc.). --Cart (talk) 13:29, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
Support Beautifully portrayed.--Famberhorst (talk) 15:48, 22 May 2021 (UTC)- Support Great composition. —Percival Kestreltail (talk) 17:47, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
Oppose Nothing surprising for me, sorry. --Commonists 17:49, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
- Another sock puppet of Livioandronico2013. In this discussion, it has been decided to strike out all his votes. --Aristeas (talk) 10:46, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
- Support Good composition. I like such kind of photographs. --XRay 💬 18:33, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support Christian Ferrer (talk) 20:10, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
Question Author is shown as Ann-Sophie Qvarnström, as is usual on your images. Yet you have said she is someone you know well. Can you explain please?Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:54, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
- Charlesjsharp, that was written before I ditched my anonymity here on the Wiki-project. You can read my more detailed answer to your question on my en-wiki talk page. --Cart (talk) 22:35, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support I think it would work even better cropped in a bit on the left, so the front ornament is more in the corner. See note. Daniel Case (talk) 03:03, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support--Agnes Monkelbaan (talk) 06:56, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Maybe I'm just not hip to what's great about this photo, but I'd want more generous crops on the bottom and left. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 08:02, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Just below the bottom crop is the ugly modern registration plate and adding space to the left would start to expose an equally ugly and unharmonious background (road gravel) at the top left corner. --Cart (talk) 09:08, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- I understand your reasons, thanks. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:46, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support --Basotxerri (talk) 16:54, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support Captures the essentials. --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 03:26, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Beautiful soft light and shapes. But it would have been a feat not to get the floor into the frame..--Ermell (talk) 09:07, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support per Frank et all. (Ermell’s point is good, of course, but IMHO the photo is still plenty good.) --Aristeas (talk) 10:31, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, I've increased the shadow a bit on that tiny area to make it less noticable. --Cart (talk) 11:00, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
- Support --Llez (talk) 09:57, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose the compo/crop does not work for me --Uoaei1 (talk) 06:22, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per other opponents. -- Karelj (talk) 16:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per above, awkward crop RolfHill (talk) 08:57, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
