nice series Jo. i would have never thought of capturing those gauges or valves. good eye man....and those tones are great! love your conversion technique!

[jocose]

Thanks everyone. I really think I want to go back to the garage and see if I can't get some more pics...maybe when they are really busy.

As to the gauges, I tried selective coloring first on the dials themselves (the ring that has the numbers are red and blue, but that just looked silly, then I tried the connectors, which are all gold, but it was too much. Then, I decided to go with all B/W, and that was it :)

Thanks again for the comments.
