Shift Knob Half Moon


Nikon D100

This is the shifter of an American muscle car, seen at this year's Stanford Concours (car show).

I really like this photo. It is very simple and elegant. Reminds me of some of the ads you may see in a car magazine. Great catch!

Cool shot. Looks like you did it in a studio.

Thanks guys. When I saw the interior of this car, I noticed that a ray of sunlight was illuminating the shift knob. I figured that by properly exposing the knob for details, the rest of the interior would be blacked out. When I got home, I saw that I was right, then I made the moon connection as I was looking at the image in Photoshop. I dodged (highlights) on the shift column to make sure that it was visible in the shot.
