Default 71 Chevelle Shoot

No, not LSx powered YET but everyone likes a bit of the classics every once in a while too. Some good photographers lurking around this forum and wanted to see if they have any feedback. Thanks for looking.

Oh - the only constructive criticism I can give you, is to shoot with the sun at your back, to avoid the car casting a shadow.

Will do as soon as I'm home. What size is your screen resolution?

Thanks for all the comments guys. Not my car, but a buddy of mine. I will get all the specs on it for ya. He had it set up to run on the jug at the track, but over the winter put air ride on it to make it more fun to cruise in. So far he loves it.

I hear ya on that. I really hate to shoot in direct sunlight, with the sun that high, but it was unavoidable in this case. This was the only time I had available. I have a few where there is no shadow but didn't really like the angles. Figured I could live with it. May go back now and try and lighten them a bit so they're less harsh and distracting. Thanks for the input.
