Oh! This is just wonderful!! The light, of course, is to die for and that yellow against the black - lovely. But what is truly wonderful? The looks and stances of envy and appreciation the two gentlemen have. Even your background cooperates - it's a bit modernistic to offset the car, but that just gives the car more weight, more prestige. Awesome!

ooh, found this and immediately recalled this image of yours...

If a young girl cuts you off on the highway

She, muscling pagan yellow
convertible around
empty gravel parking lot

decides figure-8 – and
does it
Daddy riding shotgun for

his life, his wind-
deranged hair, his wild

eyes, breaks squawking
cool brown-leafed night settling

over car hood, engine
panting at lot’s edge
lump gathering in his throat

all their years.

A perfect moment, perfectly captured, the kind of thing you can't do on purpose. Of course now won't I feel silly if you say this whole thing was set up in a studio. But that's what it looks like to me, pure serendipity.

Ah, the classic T-bird - '53 or '54? And canary yellow to boot! I'm guessing this was taken at a classic car show somewhere. These guys seem to fit right in with the era. Their car lust is palpable. Great capture.

One does not need word with this image as it tells us it story without words..... A great perspective and also a great candid shot..... Excellent.....

Again, no story. :(

Still an excellent shot! I am amazed at how everything that should be in focus is in focus, and the lighting works great. Well done!
