Nice stuff, Ken.

One suggestion, I think if you rotate your oaktree shot a bit.... get the tree vertical, it'll be a bit stronger.

The last shot looks overexposed, though.

Oh... if you get a chance, try converting that Lotus shot into a strong B&W. A little grain... some vignette at the corners... it's gonna look right out of the 60s.

Love #1, #5 and #7

I think I tweaked the last shot in photoshop too much- the background really didnt pop at all so I added contrast to it and it hurt the car in the foreground. out of the camera the car looked good.

good eye on the oak tree shot. the car looked level but I didnt notice that the tree wasnt. oops....

and I really liked the sun glinting off of the Lotus 7....

I will try a b/w of the green lotus. good idea.

Nice shots....how was the turn out for this event?

[Ken Neher]

well what was there was wonderful of course but it seemed like low turn out. but then again usually saturday is the bigger day with the car show and all that. some cars that were there never came out on track on sunday. and the crowd was weak but then again it was 99 degrees too.....
