Seems a little dark, missing some "pop". Maybe vignette the photo to remove some distractions? I like #1, #4, #5. The paint graphics are incredible.

the outside car shots would have been better if you didn't cut the cars off

Well, I think that all of these shots could have been better if the whole car were in the frame. They are too far out for artistic close ups, but not far enough for the whoel car. Kind of in between in no man's land.

However, that C6 Z06... Oh wow.

Thank you all for the CC, it's greatly appriciated

It was a very large show with a LOT of people there, so there wasnt much time to snap a good shot before sombody just walked right in front of the car, and the cars were pretty close together, so I had to get back pretty far since the only lense I had with me was the Tamron 28-75 2.8. But next time i'll try to get either the entire car into the frame, or do like I did for #'s 4, 5, an 8.

Thanks again to all of you
