Artist's Description
It could be said that the designers of the 1957 Chevrolet were at the top of their game. I took this photo on June 26, 2011, half a century after the car was created, and still it presents a timeless appeal. Absolutely masterful, I think. Purely a result of location (a water-starved field), the juxtaposition of glossy paint and bright chrome with that parched grass presents an interesting counterpoint.
I walked away from a 100+ mph inverted crash near Altoona, Pa., in a red '57 exactly like this one, back in the days when I knew I was going to live forever.
NOTE: The Fine Art watermark visible in preview windows is not on any print.
About Don Struke
Although I don't call myself a photographer, I have taken thousands of photos through the years and now and then I end up with one that is printworthy. Well, at least by my standards, which might be somewhat less than the norm. But you are the judge (continued below). PLEASE CLICK ON AD TO LEARN ABOUT THIS SITE I'm fortunate enough to have enjoyed a rather varied background in marketing, advertising, public relations, print and electronic media, TV production, and publication design in both corporate and non-profit organizations. As my list of photos on Fine Art America slowly grows, it should be apparent that my interests are all over the place, from the sight of beautiful flowers and landscapes to aviation and high performance...

Krystyna, I thank you! The '57 Chevy is so photogenic and has not one bad angle. Considering your high level of art, I am honored by your comment.

Aw-w-w-w, thank you, Sharon, but I say the car's designers made it real easy for photographers!

Annnnd this is a masterfully taken photo, Don. The creators/designers of this 1957 Chevy would be very pleased. You have taken it a step further.
