April 21, 2013 This is a gorgeous 1939 Chevrolet Business Coupe seen at a car show last year. It's another from the archives, and of course I love the light and the reflections. I'm back on the road for a business trip next week and will be gone until late Friday. I'll do my best to browse, comment & most of all enjoy your photos while I'm gone. Have a blessed day!

April 12, 2013 This classic 1951 Ford farm truck is owned by a good friend of ours named Gary. He has several other cars that are wonderful, but this great truck is certainly my favorite from his stable. Gotta love those wide-white wall tires. :-) "I've got two old Volvos, two old Subarus, and an old Ford Ranger.

April 10, 2013 This is a national award winner and a stunning 1958 Buick Super. You've seen a couple of shots of this car before, but I particularly liked this one showing the full, heavy metal body in the park setting. It's a real beauty. It's owner had me take lots of photos for him and he used one on his show board (not seen here). A showboard is what many classic car owners have the details the unique characteristics of their car, or how/who built it, etc. For example the one I have for my Mach 1 talks about it being a one-of-one car, and what makes it so. To see a couple of other photos of this glorious American car, click on the below links. The first one is my #4 most popular photo, and the second is a stylized version of the first. http://lgood.smugmug.com/Cars/Classic-Cars/12442807_4GBBqD#!i=1230527772&k=frS6Mgb http://lgood.smugmug.com/Cars/Classic-Cars/12442807_4GBBqD#!i=1230532693&k=w2np5xM "I know a lot about cars, man.

April 8, 2013 According to Wikipedia, the Chevrolet Corvette has been produced in six generations. The first model, a convertible, was designed by Harley Earl and introduced at the GM Motorama at a New York Auto show in 1953 as a concept show car. Myron Scott is credited for naming the car after the type of small, maneuverable warship called a corvette. This is a wonderful 1957 Corvette seen at one of the many car shows we go to, and from the Lgood Archives.

April 2, 2013 Who remembers when "fuzzy dice" were all the rage? You just HAD to have a pair in your car to be cool. This pair was hanging from the rearview mirror of a 1920 something model T pickup at a car show that we attended sometime in the last year or so. Another from the archives that I revisited and did some PP to. I used the Spicfy filter from Topaz and rather liked the results. You'll notice that the reflections in the windshield are of two red-shirted visitors that were admiring the truck. I also liked the reflections of the dice in the hood of the truck. Hope your day isn't "dice-y" but rather very "nice-y" today my friends. Linda
February 5, 2013 1970 Torino GT. Zoom, zoom! Best regards, Linda
February 3, 2013 It's RED!!! Really red! Another Fairlane from the National Event in Lexington, KY. Best, Linda
January 28, 2013 So sorry that I didn't get a shot of the information card on this lovely classic. However, I did really like the reflections of the 1957 Chevrolet Cameo pickup in the side door. For those of you that have watched my Smug postings over the years - you know reflections are a love of mine, and this one is one of my recent - re-discovered shots. Thanks for all your kind comments, and the warm welcome back to the Daily Community. I'm going to try to keep up the pace of posting each day. You guys rock!!! Linda
January 27, 2013 As mentioned, I'm combing through some of last year's photos & reviewing them. Many of you that have followed me on the Daily Community have seen this outstanding 1937 Ford before. However, I thought I'd post another "front" shot of this beauty. I LOVE the vibrant color, the grill and the tear drop headlights. During the holidays I received an email from a gentleman in Michigan that was putting together a family tree book. He stated that is Uncle invented this grill, he'd seen it on Smug & requested permission to use it in his book. Of course I said yes, and sent him the original shot of it. This has been enhanced to deepen the reflections and shadows - all else is SOOC. See the former daily shot of this beauty here: http://lgood.smugmug.com/Other/Daily-Photos/12484643_NvHx9n#!i=1953065084&k=8WDcPt4 Be blessed, and enjoy your Sunday. Bill & I are headed back to Big D from Reno, NV in the morning. Linda

This is a gorgeous 1939 Chevrolet Business Coupe seen at a car show last year. It's another from the archives, and of course I love the light and the reflections.

I'm back on the road for a business trip next week and will be gone until late Friday. I'll do my best to browse, comment & most of all enjoy your photos while I'm gone.

Have a blessed day!

Late addition: Note to Guest: - it's not that I don't have the skill or knowledge to keep reflections out of my auto shots, it's that I like them. And in fact many times I enhance them, sometimes I don't. My thought is that the reflections tell a story about the scene and what is going on around the vehicle. This is not a photo for commercial publication, but from my own artistic point of view, and enjoyment. So critique/criticize all you want - your opinion is your own. And mine is mine - I like the reflections. I don't mind your questions or comments, but you should be willing to share your name instead of hiding behind the guest moniker. Perhaps we could all learn from you, if we just knew who you were and had our own opportunity to critique and enjoy your work.
