Just started breaking out the camera as a hobby again and wondered if anyone thought these were decent pictures. It's a small town car show, so it's mostly just local muscle, but I felt there were some worthy posts. Feedback would be appreciated (like how to preserve the last shot but get myself out of it!).

I know this is hard but the last one has a bad case of photographer reflections ;)

the first one is a little soft focus... id prefer full car shots but I guess people love their detail shots :P

Ha ha : ))

I know the focus was a little off, but I think it works as an unanticipated artistic element. For me the angles didn't work well for full shots because all of the cars were so close together. So I went for details.

Here's a full pic for you, without the photog's reflection

There's a thread for those, but I don't remember where right now.
