Description

Photographer exposed!!! LOL! You can see me crouched down in the bumper reflections! As much as I tried avoiding all the people walking around, all the surrounding distractions and reflections in the paint, I still had to be aware of my own reflections. Well...missed one! I still love this car photo despite that little mistake. We're always on that learning journey...the curve just keeps getting better as we go! Have a blessed and happy day! :)

Just about impossible to get pictures in this type of atmosphere and not get some reflections. And in this case, the reflection really did not ruin the picture. We see the other cars,the lights, and yes that photographer. But the pov, the composing, the gorgeous colors of the car, its lines, that look that at one time anyone knew what kind of car it was, that is all captured just beautifully Connie. Am glad you shared that with us. #1696854

A beautiful car Connie, and I like your capture of it! I wouldn't be game to drive this beautiful vehicle on the road if I had it! #11644814

Beautiful shot, Connie! The reflections often enhance, rather than detract. I see no mistakes! <>< #11644849

Thank you, John and Patrick! I hope you can get one some day, John. They're a lot of work though. My husband restores and flips old cars as a hobby. They take a lot of time and effort, it seems. :-) #11647204
