All nice cars I like the rain shot the best.  

Lunch


The rain shot was a great photo, but it made me sad to see the poor Challenger out in the rain. :crying:

Pulled her back inside and dried her with a chamois as soon as you had the shot?

well if you look at the picture it must have been at night and he used a hose on the car/parking lot because the way the water is beaded on the hood/roof after you wash you car and it not running off from a downpour just sitting there beading???  and no constant rain on the right side of the car/windows etc... but held the hose just right to hit if front of the headlight to simulate rain.... :burnout: plus no water streak on the windows from it "raining" ...

I think everyone that submitted did an excellent job.  When trying to photogrpah your pride and joy, you just see it different through the lense than anyone else.  When I took my photo I had lots of things going through my head:

1. Keep the sun at my back (as best I could)
2. Make sure things aren't "growing" out of the car
3. Keep the background clean
4. Make sure it was washed
5. The windows, rolled up or down?
6. Try different angles, low, high

and the one thing I forgot to do was turn the wheel  :banghead:

So much thought but as an amateur I can't get it all right.  I did have fun though.  :2thumbs:

One pic I liked but didn't submit because of the fence:


If the fence wasn't there and the Airborne Express jet was either moved or a different angle could have been obtained it would make a nice pic.

Good job to all, let's see some that you considered but didn't submit.



This is probably my favorite pic of this year, you should have submitted it, I really don't think the fence is an issue at all, the car definately pops in this picture.   :2thumbs:
