Well I went to the Philadelphia International Car Show today. While I was there I understood the POV's Donald uses much better! Thinking of his shots of car shows (Were your ears burning Donald?) I took a few shots. Here are the results! The first two are the Cadillac concept car from opposite POV's. Magick Michael

A unique POV of a Jeep...

With some cars you only need to see a little to know.

There were classics too... Anyone know this one?

Same classic only with flash set to 50% (its not noise, its dust on the car)

I'm not sure which one's I like more...they are all awesome! I hope you upload those to your gallery! Jinx

Now you've gone and disappointed Misha. :) hehe I really like Shot 1. Love the POV and the slight tilt to give it a little dynamicism (is that a word?). As for the last shot, yup ... now you know why you don't use flash for shots at a car show. Big metal thing with rubber wheels ... lots of static to draw all the dust in the air. Also, notice how nice the chrome looks on the non-flash shot. Cyn - Dusting? Not me. Hey, isn't that, like, woman's work? Bahahaha Donald runs off giggling wildly

Very very nice Michael. Did people 'bother' you alot by bumping in to you and such or did they give you enough space to work?

Yup mighty fine shine. Really I liked the Caddy shot the jeep shot is just kinds spooky. I feel like I'm hanging off a cliff and I have an extra problem to worry about. They work for me. Bsteph
