This is the last image I intend to post in this series --for now anyway. This image is a color version shot from a similar perspective as the first one posted on Monday.

This reminds me of the Magic Bus in the movie Into The Wild. GREAT shot, the movie was great also. I have figured a few thing out about resizing, thank you for asking.

@See The Light: Thank you. I haven't seen Into the Wild yet, though I'm a big movie buff, and I plan to. These days I have a home theater with a projector and watch most of my movies at home after they come out on DVD. In any case, most of what I'm interested in will never appear at a local theater so I have few opportunities to see the films I want anyway, except at home.

I like the way it seems to have crashed to a halt. As if - with just the right conditions, it might come to life and plow through the undergrowth, heading full tilt toward the road - and freedom. Nice work.

@Carson: It doesn't kind of look that way, though I have to admit to not seeing it until you pointed it out. Thanks.

Really nice series. The B&W one's were pretty gritty in that the bus looks totally devestated. The oes with color give the bus a little hope.

@Teresa: Thank you. I think that's a good observation about the difference between the color and B&W shots. I guess the question is then: which is the most realistic, or better perhaps, most representative? Perhaps it's a glass half full, half empty, kind of question. Another way of asking this might be: does the color falsify expectation? Does the additional of color sometimes make things look a little better than they really are?
