Husband is a classic car fanatic (we have a 1970 Challenger RT convertible) so I've been to more than my share of car shows and I always have a camera with me. Up until recently I was shooting most of them with the kit lens and the results were great.  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.
