Default Car Show

Here is a photo of my car at a show in Uniontown,PA



Here are a few others.



I didn't know I looked so bad, kind of looks like I am going to take a crap

Now, I am pretty much a purist, bit your color combo is quite striking for some reason. Good eye on Ross, gotta love and miss those great chrome bumpers on that 56 chevy

I'm usually not much in favor of white wall tires and non-stock colors, but I sure like how everything works together on your car, and I like the color choice! It's a beautiful Coupe!

Dusty,
Whoa...each time that I see your car, I get a wake up feeling about like results of three cups of strong coffee! Your beautiful sport coupe is refreshing somehow. Thanks for sharing!

HA! Just noticed your bumper clamps are painted green too!

I am also rarely a fan of non-stock colors but your car is pretty cool.

The A looks amazing and I have to ask, what kind of camera are you using? Did you have to mess with the color balance of those pictures or is that right from the camera?

Did you wipe the tires off before taking the picture of the A? kind of reminds me of the Toro advertisement I saw that pissed me off. A guy mowing his law, with a huge smile, no sweat and the mower wheels were spotless. I'm sorry but when I mow my lawn I'm drenched, with a big frown and the mower is NOT spotless.

"The A looks amazing and I have to ask, what kind of camera are you using? Did you have to mess with the color balance of those pictures or is that right from the camera?"

The camera is a Canon 5D Mark II which is a full frame sensor (same size as 35mm film) coupled with a 24-105mm Canon L lens. These were all shot in HDR which is the process of folding numerous different exposures into one photo. If you process it right it is as close to what your eye sees as there is.

Also thanks all for your comments on my car
