Or maybe I will borrow a black-wall from the Capri.

OK, maybe I'll give it a shot over the weekend.

It appears you are also parked completely under tree cover...that may be an uphill battle that even lighting can't fix. It needs to out in the open, no direct sunlight and with a neat/unique background. That background is nice...is there anywhere nearby that is not under cover of the trees?

I'm going to re-shoot my car with my daughter this weekend as well. With the amount of sun, the paint is washed out. Here is an iPhone pic that I took some time ago and the lighting was much better.....

Cool backdrop! If you reshoot....be sure to clean off the tire surface from the gravel/dirt once you get it set in place. Even use some tire shine if you want

BTW...I am in no way a photographer, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night Actually I'm just fortunate to have a really good DSLR camera and some coaching from a few photogs and a couple reputable magazine editors.

Here's my second shoot. This is the best one, but not there yet.

Took my wife's suggestion, just put the tires on one side.
We have to listen to the girls at times, they got brains behind those pretty faces.
So I have white walls on one side, and white letters on the other.

Three new ones from earlier tonight....

OK, Here's another shot. This was a little after sunrise. The other location with the water had cars parked there to fish.

Are these pictures any better?

This might help a bit as an example. I'm not very good at photography, but one evening, I noticed how the light (or lack of it) made the paint look. I was pretty pleased with the result.



Now, here's a different pic from another angle, I like how it looks, but with the shadows falling across the car, it's just not an ideal photo that shows the car off very well:

I just e-mailed a few of mine and my Dad's. They're older pictures, I just couldn't get out for better ones. I'll get better one for next year.

[smitty54]

OK, Here's my last attempt at it.

[sowaxeman]

Just making sure you all know, the actual full resolution pics needed to emailed per the instructions for consideration....they can't be pulled off of this thread for use since they get compressed.

few of my submissions

[plumkrazy]

Was wondering how the photos are coming are we close to having enough? Plan is to go out Sat if weather is good.

[Quicksilver]

I just sent in a photo for consideration. Recruited my sister with her camera for help. I'm kinda a point and shoot photographer.

[conmech]

Totally forgot about borrowing my daughters camera for pics at the show Sunday. Phone only goes up to 8 mega pixel.

[coupedup]

Are we any closer to the final entries? I submitted my pics via email but didn't receive any kind of confirmation. Looking forward to the end result!

[Ray Dog]

I sent mine in tonight.
Two of the pics
