About the Abandoned 1957 \u2013 1959 Ford Fairlane Coupe in in\u00a0Megargel, Texas<\/h3>\n

During my photo trips I am always on the look out for side trips and other abandoned vehicles and buildings. One of the unplanned stops I had to take was in the town of Megargel, Texas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Although this town isn\u2019t the smallest town or a ghost town, it does have a quite a few abandoned buildings and cars. One of those abandonments was this old Ford Fairlane that sitting on the edge of an abandoned house in town.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure of the year of this old Fairlane. There is simply not enough of her left for me to know what year she came off the assembly line. I believe this one to be a second generation coupe.<\/p>\n

About the Image<\/h3>\n

This image was shot with my Sony Nex-3N<\/a> with a Sigma 30mm f2.8 DN E Mount Lens<\/a>, then I processed it with Adobe Lightroom<\/a> to crop, straightened, and remove dust spots from the image. Then I post processed the image with Topaz Labs Clarity<\/a> to add more texture, remove shadows, boost brightness, and contrast.<\/p>\n
