Default My Chevelle
I got my chevelle back from the shop 2 weeks ago, so I have been out both weekends taking pictures of it. The lighting isnt the greatest since I had to wait until it warmed up in the afternoon to take it out (I don't have heat in it right now).

C+C?







The branches need to be photoshopped out:

Beautiful car. Just add some pop to the last one, do a little cropping at the top left and you have a nice shot. What's under the hood?

I like the B&W looks like it could be a promotional ad for the chevelle right out of 1970
Its too bad the top of the sign got cut off

^2nd

The bw photo looks great, the location and the effect of the bw suits the car. If you every get the chance, try going back to that location (the bw one) and do a whole series thier in bw.

I love shot number 4, total old school all around.

I think you've picked some excellent locations...go back at sunrise or sunset and take the shots again with longer exposure get some more color on that beautiful broad side!
