I stopped at the roadside yesterday to take pics of a sailboat when suddenly many old Buick cars drove by. I turned around and got some shots.

Right place at the right time....and you made the shots count. They are very nice. Especially like the blue one and the white one with interesting background. Nice work.

And you had your camera along. Your shots are right on :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Great set. Did you touch any of them with just a little HDR??

Thanks for the comment. This was very old tech shots on a dslr, with manual aperture and manual focus lens. I had to use what was in my hands when the first cars passed, no time to think much or change gear, just set aperture manually on the lens and started focusing and zooming with left hand and shooting with right. :|

No, I got the boat too - but it did not seem to fit in with the cars here :)

In Texas we have an apropos expression which you fit nicely, "Even a blind hog finds an acorn once in a while".
