the lovely couple that own this hot rod have been waiting a month to see a new picture of their baby. they thought they'd been going crazy and missed it, but no. i just don't post everything, especially if i'm not satisfied with it. i suppose i have an old email from them somewhere, so i could have let them know. or i guess i could have written something here. but then i wonder if they're just looking for the picture and not reading it, they wouldn't know then either.
i had been having an internal arguement over a couple of shots of it from a show out in riverside, but there was something in each that was just not doing it for me.
then this weekend, a couple of local shows i'd heard about and planned to attend, just simply didn't happen. so having awakened at an ungodly hour for a saturday, took my better half along for the ride out to rialto, promising him that i don't drive out there anymore if it isn't worth it. i'd scoped out a few while my son went to ucr, so i knew this would be ok.
and i kinda guessed they'd be there too. i saw them drive in as we walked over the train tracks to the main strip. we didn't actually get there until after 8am, so the sun was already past the sunrise we were looking for, but not so high as to be irritating.
i took a few shots early, then wound back around and took these two before i left. i think either one looks better than the shot with gary's favorite outhouses.
my better half went to the car show with me, so afterwards, we went out to chino planes of fame for him. he had fun...hardly anyone there, and a nice breeze for a change.
thanks for telling about another show the next day, but i just couldn't do another whole day in riverside.
oh ya, and there's the little grumpy on the back of the other car. didn't notice him last year, when i was just all about the skulls.
oh, and buy a print here
