#1   :picture:  That looks just like it was a vacation shot in 1970 something, love seeing these old mopars surrounded by things that remind me of the past.

#3 - EASILY.  :cheers:


#1 is a great angle that shows the lines but is too filtered/dark to appreciate the car's colour. #2 is just not a good shot LOL hey! beats being an arse kisser. Good colour on it though but just too low to gather any real depth to the image IMO. Sometimes those shots work but you need to be closer and make it more dramatic but then becomes more of a 1/3 photo than a full on 3/3 shot. #3 from your picks. If you had waited until then sun had shifted more you wouldn't have got the shadow and I'm guessing there was nothing as good as the scenery on the other side. :2cents:
Carl, Your right there was a road on the other side in #3. My daughter took all the pics. I $uck at taking pics. They were just 3 of my favs.  :cheers:

You should give it a go, you'll do fine. We're here to help. That way you can plan trips out to great scenic locations. I usually fire off 2 or 3 hundred shots and only 30 or so come out looking really good and something I'm happy with. The others, nope lol, just not quite right or something just not perfect. Anyhow, IMO you can't go wrong with #3.

I think the car looks best in #1, but it is too cluttered. Overall, I think #3 is the best. Of course, I'd be happy to see any of those pics on a calendar!

I like #1 because even though the shine looks great, you cannot tell exactly what color it is so it could be one of many colors and to me that adds to the allure. Secondly it has drive-in stuff around it which also brings back good memories of cruising the drag and stopping for a burger. The one by the water is a very close second imo.

Kenny, It's a nice shot. But it's on grass.

The grass is greener over here.
You need to buy a plane ticket and check it out sometime. Maybe for the next Carlisle. :2thumbs:

I like #1 the most. Your Challenger looks very muscular in that photo, not to mention it looks the most "period correct" of all your photos. I think it captures the car in the era in which it was born.
