Looks like a beautiful day, nice images. TOD is one of my favorite roads, along with many of the other roads in that area.

Are you taking about the brownish haze layer?

No, the brown parallel lines especially visible in the top of the Porsche shot.

a) That brown layer (which I didn't notice while shooting) is atmospheric. The air was amazingly clear and you could see for miles so any junk in the air shows up. It is very common to see this in many parts of he country when flying on a clear day. You don't notice it until you climb out of it and can see the brown haze. To be honest, I was grumbling to myself that the Porsche was parked on a slight hill.

b) The Cobra is a 1963 small block (289) car with flared fenders.

c) I agree that it was a bummer I had to shoot from the shade side. The fill flash pulled out some of the detail but it sure would have been nice to have some sun. I used the pop-up and really wish I would have grabbed the 430 and bumped the power to see how more light would have looked.

Here is the same shot with no flash.

Good series.

I had to shoot from the shade side.

In sunlight, I usually prefer white cars from the shady side. Try it both ways & see what you think looks more interesting.
