How about a change of pace and a splash of color?
This was from the Stanford Concours from a couple of years ago. This is the classic hot rod setup, a supercharger on a V8. In this case, it's on a 1973 Corvette. I was struck by the lighting on this one with the vivid background color.

For those of you who are not car nuts, did this picture do anything for you?
Or it it just..."oh, it's just nutty Warren and his stoopid car pictures".
In other words, would this appeal to the "common" viewer?
Just curious...
By the way, I found that this picture makes a great desktop wallpaper on the PC. I have it on my work PC. :)
Well, I'm not all that interested in cars, but I like the photo very much!
You created an "anthropomorphic" image in the way you framed this part of the engine - looks like a 3-eyed, yellow-caped superhero. The diagonal belt is like a "Sam Browne" belt soldiers used to wear before WWII.
Really nice colors and composition.
I think I would have liked to see the entire circle of the pulley at the bottom, but you can't always get what you want...
Steve, you have a way with words. This is the most delightful (to me) comment on FPCF so far :) :) Your "anthropomorphic" interpretation brought a smile to my face, and made my day. Thanks!
