The Fabulous Thunderbirds *

Unread post by Juanito200 »

*With apologies to the band of the same name....

I was in downtown McKinney yesterday shooting with a friend, and a T-bird club was having a run. So, quite a lot of our time was spent photographing these great cars. Unfortunately, for the most part, they were in regular parking spaces, or on the streets, making it more difficult to isolate a single car. I think I managed to get some good shots though. Let me know what you think, John

Beautiful cars, indeed.
and, of course, nice shots, specially when dealing with the reflections. Well done.

Thanks Birma and Doc.... It was a real challenge keeping myself and other, more mundane cars, out of the reflections and overall shot. John

All the nice things written above + "it feels good to visit that certain era when there was something rebellious in the air".

Thanks for shooting, John. : )
