Thread: '40 Vintage Delivery

Tweet

While doing errands in the rain, I came across this vehicle across the street and at our corner.

On location I metered (center metering on my W 90) my GREY SCALE/VALUE FINDER CARD at VALUE 6. (Thlis is a 10 VALUE CARD - from black to white). I guess it is a very very distant relative (for painters) to the ANSEL ADAMS ZONE SYSTEM card. It kept the rainy day effect very well.

On the P C, I did not have to do any work - other than resizing as all VALUES and TONES on the vehicle matched where I wanted them to.

Actually, it's a 50's vintage, well, '49-'52 anyway.

Sorry for the wrong date of the vehicle. When I saw it, it looked like something in the mid to late '40's.
