An aluminum car at the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh. The light is partially from a window and the colors are reflections of interior lights and other displays in the hall. The Center is a great place to visit, with some permanent and some changing exhibits. Sure wish it were in my neck of the woods. For the PG101 silver theme.
