Vintage Scene

Lumix LF1

This was shot in Carmel during the Motorsport Reunion Week. It was in the early evening, and I had a really nolstalgic feeling when looking at this vintage Porsche 550. When I took the picture, I had a B&W image in mind.

Too bad the car had a a web site address graphic on it, which kind of ruined the illusion. :)

1962 Chevy Impala SS

 D200, Nikkor 24mm f2.8

I was at the 2012 Palo Alto Concours last weekend, and this car was my favorite of the show. It made me think fondly of my dad's first car which was a 1964 Impala. The '62 is very similar to the '64 model, except ours was a light blue, 4-door hardtop (non-SS). The '62 lines were more angular, the '64 more rounded.

Open Road

Nikon D100, Sigma 15-30mm

We made a side trip to the ghost town, Rhyolite (more photos of it coming soon). Here our car is parked on the road out of town, looking toward Death Valley.

Dan,

Did you post any Rhyolite pictures here? I don't remember seeing them. Yes, we put 1500 miles on the old '95 E420, and it performed flawlessly on the trip. It now has over 193,000 miles on it, and still going strong. Of course, I had it thoroughly checked out by my mechanic before we went on the road trip.

This tells the story of the america auto industry.......when cars were big and powerful, and really over the top... I can hear the low rumble of the engine, the air flowing through the cabin with the windows down, and sweet smell of spring time.

I agree with Steve, nice composition.

Window to the World

Panasonic DMC-G1, Lumix 14-45mm

This is the rear window of a classic Pierce Arrow Limousine. Everyone was gawking at the luxurious interior.
