I liked the light on this ’51 VW bug as much as I liked the the car.
Pushed a bit in camera raw.

I like the sneak peek aspect of the bottom image where it looks like we’ve just pulled the garage door open for a big reveal. The color and shine are fab…

Hitler’s Revenge, Ralph Nader’s Bane and a bright Communist Red, what more need I say! (P.S. I’m with Ralph!)

First shot is just beautiful, esp. b/c red is such a tough color to shoot. What camera and lens did you use?

I have a Nikon D80 and this was with the older Tamron 18-270. The light was so fabulous

What a beauty! I’ve got to start getting to more car shows. Love the split rear window.

Love the top image–the light and shadow, the brilliant red, and the subtle star bursts off the highlights.
