From "Wheels of Time" classic car/street rod show held in Macungie, PA this weekend. I took a lot of photos of the cars but then I got drawn in to hood ornaments and such.

Hope you enjoy the images. Let me know what you think.

John, Dude, pennypue,

Glad you enjoyed the images. When I get a chance, maybe tonight, I'll post some of the cars from the show.

I LOVE the spoked wheel and I'm not really even a car guy. I dig the ornaments too. Well done.

Great shots.

For static car shows, I quickly realized how much nicer it is to use the 100 macro over the 70-200 2.8.

I like 2 & 4. You should consider not centering the hood ornament in the frame.
