One from the weekly cruise in

Captured this 32 Ford roadster at the weekly cruise in last Friday.

why did you cut the light at the back ?

I new someone was going to ask me that!

Believe me I did not want to cut that tail light off, but I did sacrifice it. That car was parked back in a corner section of the lot where the cruise in was held. The one thing I noticed about the pic when I was framing it up in camera were the reflections in the side of the car. If I moved the framing back to get 100% of the car in, well more specifically the tail light, I lost the reflection of back of the truck in front of the car and some of the people towards the back. I was blocked by other cars and tons of people to try and other wise reframe the shot at a better focal length so I sacrificed the tail light. I'm sorry! I could probably get that shot with all of the car in it now after buying my 10-20mm sigma lens, but the 18-55 lens I shot that with had me at it's limits.

Sorry but now i understand that you didn't have a lot of choices.
Nice B&W by the way, i like it.

I like the processing, too. It seems to fit the image.
