Hi all,

Here are some images of a '57 Chevy that I shot back in June (OK, I'm way behind on my photo processing - arrival of my first child in July may have had something to do with that ;)). I shot these at a classic car show with Frank (thanks for the pointers, Frank - hope we can do it again later this year!).

C&C would be appreciated...

Regards,
Greg

That IS quite a compliment! :-)

Ya know, we Detroiters are pretty much obsessed with cars, so it must be something in the water here...

Frank gets lots of credit for these photos, since he showed me the ropes and helped me out with waiting until the right time of the evening to capture these shots...

Thanks again. I'll keep plugging away once the snow clears!

Greg

Classic shots. In the first shot it looks like the man is popping out of the hood.

I never noticed the dude popping out of the hood before... :)

Maybe I need to try getting rid of the background on these photos and seeing what it would look like.

Anytime, Greg! It's nice to have someone listen once in a while.
Re: 1-3, a bit more room around them would be nice, especially at the front of the car. Give it some room to "move into"?

DISREGARD THIS!
OTOH, sorry, but IMAGE POSTING RULES only allow pics 800 pixels or smaller. You can always just post a link to them, though.

Hi Frank,

Sorry about the images...I mis-read the posting rules. :oops:
