Yesterday I went to the Oak Bay car show (after a friend reminded me it was on…). Photographing cars is fun, lots of interesting shapes and lines, but it is hard to control reflections.<\/p>\n

The subject of this image is the reflections though…<\/p>\n

\"Not

or again, emphasizing the brightness of the reflections….<\/p>\n

\"Yes

Much of my photography is about details. Old cars are an almost overwhelming treasure trove of details, especially hood ornaments…<\/p>\n

Personally, I like the look of cars before the late 1950’s – early 1960’s. The 1970’s were pretty hideous, and modern cars all seem to try to be SUV’s or something. I know there exceptions, of course, but my perfect car would be something with classic styling and modern innards<\/a>* (I like being able to DRIVE).<\/p>\n
