we just got back from a walk uptown. passed the whittier community association office, where they post flyers for all the local activities going on, up on their windows.
this year, the annual uptown car show has been moved up from mid august to june fourth.
in a normal world, i'd have said that's great, since it's always hotter than hell in august. but it's not perfect, and my world has been a bit of a crazy whirlwind lately. so, checking my calendar, i've just noticed that i have to catch a train to san diego that same day. perfect.
i can make it work, though, since the show is physically, just up the street. i'll just have to be sure to be all packed and ready to go the night before.
we're usually up and out by five-thirty in the morning anyway. organizers are up and telling vendors where to set up, and cars are stuck in purgatory, i mean, staging.
we'll just get up and out, shoot the cars for a few hours, as usual, but then i'll go home, download the pictures, and head to the station, instead of back to the show. just sucks that i won't be able to do anything with them until i get back a week later.

shot this car before, at a different show, from the back end. even sold the file for cheap, to an unnamed shop not too far away, with their idea of putting it on tshirts. perhaps they didn't have a shop to do it, or the cost prevented it.
i suspect, the more likely scenario is that they just gave the owner a nice print of the car. enjoy, i guess.
