What a brilliant isolation and execution, Brad! Great to see something a little more "vintage" than me! #1293644

I hear that Michelle, love the vintage cars. Such style, I appreciate them more as I become more vintage myself. Thanks for the comments. #8798533

Aloha Brad,
Mahalo for entering this image! It is wonderful. and nostalgic for me. I once owned/restored a '43 Caddilac limo and the hood ornement was my favorite part.
Always wished I had some pics from that time, but I wasn't into photography then.
I'm gonna run to your gallery and see if there are more. #8825131

Brad Harding August 13, 2010

Thank you Fax, look under "Cool Cars and Bikes", or also look under "Close Up" in my gallery. Thanks for the kind words. #8825186

Thanks Nancy, I saw your note that you couldn't get to my gallery from the finalist page. I tried it and it didn't work for me either. You can click on the picture and then click on the Pro website name in botton right hand corner and it then links to the gallery. I tried several others who had the same problem and sent a note to BP. It looked like a hit and miss problem. Thanks for your encouragement. Brad #8909434
