Default Car Show...Pt 1

My daughters dance company always walks in the parade and then does several dance numbers at the local arts festival in Otsego, MI. Also they hold a large car show, tractor show, etc. Here are a few shots from this weekends car show. I really don't like taking full car shots, especially when it's a crowded car show. I like to get the details, details that make it the car it is. ENJOY

If you are impatient like me sometimes, the rest of them can be seen on my blog. They are in the 1st and 3rd postings on the blog.

wow and wow!!
i love all of these as they are exactly the kind of shots i like to take of cars the detail.
The colour and clarity is superb oohhhh dont you just love the chrome?. American cars from the 50s and 60s have incredible designs and great detail give me a mustang anyday lol!! I agree that its hard to get whole car shots sometimes as the crowds just do your head in. I have always been happy shooting just parts like you
thanks these are the best for me today on DPS
mike
ps i checked your other car threads hope you dont mind and they are cool too!!
