The town I spent most of my youth has a thing in July every year called the Golddiggers Celebration. I go mostly for the cars. But taking pictures at car shows is too car-showy for me. I liked this picture that presented itself to me though. The overcast day gave me this in the late afternoon.

*Sorry, image removed.*

Your feedback would be appreciated.

    Like the composition and inclusion of the background setting. Looks a little underexposed.

    What is the year of the car?

    Thanks for your comment, Phil. I may have developed that in Lightroom before I realized you can change the background color/shade. I used the dark, almost black background for a long time before I read it could be changed to white or light gray. It actually does make a difference in how a picture appears.

    I don't know the year or even the model of car that is. I tried to find the owner, but couldn't.

    Very nice! Was this take in golden light around sunset?

    Thank you. Yes, the EXIF data indicates it was taken at 19:50 (7:50PM), which was 10 or 15 minutes before sunset.
