I was working on a project this past summer for someone that wanted me to take some digital photos of cars at a show, but make them look kind of like film. I volunteered to shoot them on film, but that wasn't the look they wanted. They wanted the crispness of digital, edited to look like film, and a landscape format. I stumbled upon them again today as I was organizing tlast year's photoshoots, and decided to share just a few of them.

Interesting photos. I'm old enough to remember when those cars were new.

Thanks, John! While I'm not old enough to remember when they were new, it's only because I was too young to be interested. I was born by then however. I was 1 when that Ranchero came out.

I very much enjoy when people capture the idiosyncratic features of old cars. I especially love the Bel Air and Tbird.

Thanks, Lee! I'll often go through a car show with a wide lens first, then come back through with a 50mm for shots like these. The BelAir... that has always been the car that comes instantly to my mind whenever anyone says "classic cars". My dad owned a 1957 BelAir wagon back when we were little (early 1960's), and us kids would argue on whose turn it was to sit in the "way back" seat. Good times!
