Camera Talk

The Star City Cruisers put on their 47th Annual Car and Bike Show at the Veterans Administration Medical Center in Salem, VA. It’s always a nice mix of vehicles, and this year Mission BBQ, a local restaurant that supports veterans, served up the eats.

I like these shots. I was fond of the closeup of the trophies and I have a special fondness for the smaller '60s muscle cars: Camaro and Mustang. At least, there aren't any Mustang II models in there.

The size of the wooden steering wheel on the '67 Mustang is ridiculously huge. But that's just how it was in that era.

The custom V8 Trike is hilarious and so cool.

The owners have put some serious cash into these cars.

I really like how you photographed these.

Very nice classics, must have been a spectacular show. Many of those cars look in better shape than when they rolled out of the factory!

Thanks, Mike and Julio.
