Title: This One
Post by: ScottyBoy on April 29, 2008, 10:02:59 PM
 I was just fiddling around taking pics of my model car, and I got one that I think looks like a real car in a picture from the 60's!

Some nice light on the hood of the car it does look real could have done with a little light being reflected back into the front, not too much, just enough to reveal some detail, mind you, its a subject you can set up again. Not that I had toys when I was a kid, I'm making up for it now. I sat on Santa's knee last Christmas, I said I didn't want much, and that I'd be happy with a Rolex watch, a Ferrari, and a train set, what did I get? Now't. I asked Santa what he wanted, he said, "A hernia operation,"

Whilst I remember, yes I have sold a few photo's not that many, three to scripture union, one as a book cover the other two as pictures in a daily devotional, had a full page of my photo's printed on a full broadsheet page of a local paper after having won first and second place in local competition, because of that some of my pictures were seen in Tibet, sometime I'll post those pictures when I dig em out. Got several published in the Pentacon Club's magazine, Practica Photography. Used to have Practica cameras, my favourite lens ever was the 80mm F1.8 Zeiss Pancolour lens.

If you hadn't told me, I would simply have concluded that this was a real car.  Great shot!

That's a funny comment on Santa. I  wouldn't mind having a Ferrari ether! Nice cars!

No good having one of those unless your making regular trips down to Monte, and the French Riviera, all goes with the image.
