If it weren't for the padawan's Oakleys and the telephone pole in the background, this shot could totally have been from the late 19th or early 20th Centuries. Except it was shot with a Nikon D3 and a 24-120mm f/4 VR lens rather than a period correct camera.

I'm fascinated by this enormous twenty-eight horsepower behemoth...

This was an attempt at giving a sort of "vintage color" feel to the scene...

...and here's my usual color and exposure calibration on the RAW file from the camera.
