Very good photo's Willie.I'm partial to #2 as it's a cobra and i work at a ford dealership.At your next car show see if you can find a super snake which is a modified Shelby Cobra GT 500.Awesome photo's of some awesome rides.
Excellent shots, Jiro. I like the Camaro (#3) the best. Nice processing.
I like #3, very nice composition. A mean looking car.
Great shots Jiro, really striking.
Great shots and, as usual, your imagination in these things is really way out there in front. However I did have some concern. Not for your work. More for you. Knowing how fanatacial these car enthusiasts are, surely you are taking your life in your hands showing undue interest in the badges on their treasured restortations? They tend to get a bit twitchy about these things...
Beautiful and very imaginative work Willie

Thanks, Ken. Well, I do take this new hobby (photography) seriously as I am immensely enjoying it. I don't think they (the owners of these very fine cars) see me as a very intrusive person. I may be getting too close to their prized possessions but I keep myself in the right perspective not to nick or scratch their "toys". One owner of a 1958 Chevrolet Corvette even asked me "Are you a professional photographer?" Of which I smilingly replied "Hell no, Sir." He was really surprised to see me circling around his car, changing my point of view up and down before even taking a shot. He said he never saw anyone do that before. Usually, all he sees are guys with cameras and long lenses and just click and click but not one with such concentration before taking a shot. I told him "I am looking for some angles where your car would really bring its character, Sir that is why I am circling around. I want your car to tell me where he looks good and smarty!" Maybe, due to my enthusiasm he gave me a brief history on how he was able to acquire the car and restored it for almost 7 years before it arrived at this fully restored state. I just love talking to people with different passion as mine and yet share the same enthusiasm in what we do. Cheers.
