Father & Son moment

Candid at Monterey Historic Car Races

The son appears to be a little deflated in the mood for not being allowed into the driver's compartment though... Poor chap!
Oh, you mean the other small chap that has a most excited smile !?

Love the bright red and yellow of the car, Sury. And, the father apparently is an avid photographer carrying around multiple cameras which probably weigh a lot after a few tours around the field.

Nice shot, but, I think the Michelin man deserves a proper display of its head and goggly eyes with a little more head room at the top of the frame.

Thanks for sharing, Sury.

Thanks for sharing Sury. My Dad used to work at Ford in Detroit and I remember going to car shows of all sizes, even after he left Ford for another career. Car shows just have a lot of good memories of time spent with my Dad.

Thank you Yildiz and hopefully this one rectifies the situation.
Thank you Jeff. Hopefully you had a good walk down the memory lane.

Hi Sury,

Thank you for sharing that photo as well, though I wasn't expecting a literal response. This frontal photo also displays the beauty o the car in a different fashion; lots of model details. And the Michelin man is looking very nice as well.

The excited little son is missing but I suppose you can't have everything. : )

Thanks for sharing, you're very kind.

Yildiz, any failure on my part is not for lack of trying.....

You or your photography cannot be failures, Sury!

You know I was merely kidding... Sometimes it's hard to decide where the priority lies when there are multiple opportunities crowding the scene of photography. With so many beautiful cars to take in, I'm surprised you could even focus on taking photos.

Sometimes I forget taking photos of an exciting scene so I can actually have the real life experience, because composing photos certainly displaces one's focus onto other things, like camera settings, light, exposure and of course what to include in the frame.

I know very well, you are kidding. And so was I. It is one of my favorite events to visit and I usually end up with couple of thousand photos because I don't want to "miss" anything. The bane of having a 64GB card in the camera and another 32GB spare cards and few extra batteries to go with it.

Now there is a cab I'd like to ride in Cracking pictures, Sury.
