Hey all!

A few weekends back I went to the Annual Old Car Festival at The Henry Ford Museum & Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. Here are a few choice shots.

I exported them on my laptop, sometimes they end up being a bit dark when I do so. If they are dark to you, let me know and I will redo them on a different PC, which tends to provide better results for me anyway.

I did quite a bit of experimenting with high F-stop numbers ranging from 8 to 21 that day. It was incredibly sunny that afternoon and I ended up having some decent shutterspeeds. I blown away at the clarity of a few of the images.

Here they are, thanks for your thoughts.

Lovely cars - but here's some comments;
Photo 1 - crop out the remains of the car in front
Photo 2 - got to lose the papaer on the windscreen
Photo 3 - can the white house be lost?

Thank you for your comments.

Photo 1 - I need to learn more about being aware of what is surrounding my subject matter. I will be doing my best to compose the shots better in the future.

Photo 2 - Unfortunately, going into the car to remove the paper wasn't an option. The owner's weren't sitting right next to the vehicle. I do understand and agree that the paper tag gets in the way of this shot. Ignorning the paper, is the composition decent, is this a worthy photo? I can see about cloning out the building, but I don't know if that will add to the piece as much.

Photo 3 - With this shot, it wasn't easy to compose with little more then just the car in the image. To the right of the shot, there was a large number of people that I thought would have seriously distracted the viewer from the car. I hadn't realized that the building may detract from the car enough for someone to comment on it.

Thanks again for your comments.
