Nice shots of an unusual car! I haven't seen any of those around here.

Thank's Frank!

Your my inspiration to dig up some of my old car show photos from the last couple of years!
Here is another '59 shot taken last year, they really got the cars jammed in making it difficult to get a good profile view.

G3 again.

I usually stay late. Cars leave & the light gets better around 8PM. ;-)a

Hi Bill, You got a few pretty good shots of these "UNIQUE" old cars.
Yeah, It's pretty rare to see any of these around anymore. :cool:

The Captain and crew finally got their stuff together, now if we can only remember where we left it. :cool:

Thanks for the kind words Bruce,
Do you guys think using the wide converter causes too much distortion of the cars?
Most of the time I have no choice.
And, the settings I use are Program mode with only a little sharpening in post processing.
Any criticism would be welcome

I didn't notice distortion beyond what's normal for a WA lens. You have to work with what you have, right?
Someday you'll get lucky & get to shoot some cars around 8PM. That'll make a difference! ;-)a
