Another great set Tom. You certainly get to see some beautiful work. That Duesenberg, is a beautiful example of rolling, metal art!

I feel blessed, Phil, to get the exposure that I do to some of the most beautiful....and intriguing....cars ever made. I've chased these scenes for years and it never gets old.

So... last summer, for the first time in my life I took part in an all-day photo workshop. It was an interesting day, made extra-challenging because the weather was extra lousy. When it wasn't pouring down rain, it was just plain ugly outside. Ugh. One of the subjects in the afternoon was a waterwheel, where I did some experimenting with f-stop/shutter speed combinations.

Here are a few of the MANY shots I took - I'd love to have feedback about why one or the other is interesting or not.

I capture this image with my phone during the recent, Seattle, Snowmagedden 2019. processed in the phone with added contrast and saturation. Now that I see it on a computer screen, it is a bit over saturated.

We don't get it all that often but it's photogenic. This is a shot of where three oxalis leaves joined.

1. 1933 MG J2 Look at the placement of the engine compartment firewall relative to the passenger area. Quite unusual. The ocupant's legs and feet would extend into the " blank " space beyond the dashboard.

2. 1930 Duesenberg Lebaron

3. 1928 Marmon "78" Rumble Seat Roadster. This very car was the pace car for the 1928 Indianapolis 500 race.

4. 1931 Alfa Romero 6C 1750 Zagato Spyder
