Snapped some pics of the car today..

Spur of the moment photo shoot after I cleaned it up for winter storage. Not bad for about 20 minutes and a point and shoot digicam. Car is jackstanded now but next year i'm going back to the same spot with:

1: A broom!
2: My truck, a stepladder, and my wife to help
3: Better camera, will try to borrow a tripod
4: Hopefully my 8" GN wheels and 275/50 drag radials
5: Solid blue or overcast sky and green foliage
6: More time to play with angles, horizon lines, tire angle, windows and marker lights

Might have myself a frameworthy photo when I'm done. Also plan to enter Popular Hot Rodding's annual photo contest.

Just thought I'd share. Any additional tips welcome.

I'm wondering if the camera I borrowed was on the wrong setting. the pics looked really bright on the LCD preview screen but on my computer they look too dark ( and my monitor brightness is 100%). Also resizing them makes them fuzzier than they should be.

It's what you have to do in Kansas to keep paint looking like that after almost 15 years.

Thanks for the compliment.

Looking good Bob, I was just in that elevator last Friday talking to Buckwheat.

I really like that old railroad bridge in the background in the trees.

Nice blue bus you have on the showroom floor as well

I thing ya got something there.

The bridge shot, and the elevator shot are great. It'll give you something to think about over the winter.

Thanks for sharing.
