Wheels out Front

Olympus C3030Z

My kind of pickup.

Generations...

Lets go shopping

okay folks, here goes!

first let me say, i dont know when GMT is (i THINK its 5 hours ahead of me) so that makes it about now to close the challenge

ill address each in the order they were posted.

RDWP. i am a motorcyclist on hiatus (repairs needed) and love the repeating pattern of the front wheels and helmets. i noticed the style of wheels are different and alternating. nice.

Jerry-R. i had the previous generation Mustang (just a simple GT though not the Cobra) but dont you "know" that Red cars will get you more speeding tickets than other colors? nice stance to it.

OldCrwo. my FAVORITE kind of car. one that is in what APPEARS to be factory configuration. ever since i was young, when i got car models with stock or souped up versions (with the parts) i always built stock, although in this case i dont think the keg was OEM.

RWMSON. two of my favorite planes. planes that do fly or did fly or just sit on the ground looking pretty! i like the juxtaposition between the 4-engine heavy bomber and the 2-engine light jet.

HappyGav. great use of angle and perspective on a rather ordinary object that most people dont give a 2nd thought to unless one of those wheels doesnt turn or pivot properly!

the Winner this week goes to:

HappyGav. all pictures were well done technically but i have to give props to the shooter who either got down on the ground to take the picture or at least (in my case some days!) bent over set the camera down and shot, then was able to bend down AGAIN, to pick up the camera!


remember to copy and paste the instructions on YOUR challenge and link the new post...

Congrats to HappyGav! Enjoyed all the others, too.

Dave - I believe you on your motorcycle history. I noticed the number placement alternated on the front fenders but hadn't noticed that the wheels were different! Takes the experienced eye. BTW, these are Ottawa police so I guess they're always polished up for official escorts and such. Good topic.

Congrats Happygav!

Well done HappyGav.

Thanks the selection. Lots of great shots this week. I did get down on the ground to capture this one. I do like the low angle shots.
I will get the next challenge posted shortly.

Cheers,
Gavin

Nice shot of a nice car. I have a 1986 LX 5.0, 5 speed that I bought brand new and still have. Not the fastest Mustang but I love to drive it.
