Fun set Tom. I never had much use for a car that could only turn left


Foyt's #1 and Mosely's SgarRipe #12 were left-turn only racers. The Target and PNC Bank cars turned both directions. Indy car has has been turning both directions for 20 years. Women now drive race cars, and they also wear pants! Automobiles today come from the factory with headlights already installed. Some people's minds remain entrenched in the stone age, don't they?

This is a '32 Ford known as the " Double Down Duce ". It's got to be a wild ride....4 wheel drive and bodacious power.


Nice choice. You gave us front wheel drive and some kind of engine that consumes massive amounts of air riding on racing slicks. Great! Show us that engine. Are those fans on the rear part of the cabin? How's the ride?

Holy smoke! Went to buy a new android phone. Amazing.. one has a 200 mp rear camera. I can't imagine that. They had it wired up to the display so did not get to try it out. My last phone was 7 years old, the newer ones are amazing. Why would anyone want a 200 mp rear camera? What are your thoughts?


Please define "rear camera" for a phone.

I am going on an Alaskan Cruise soon and was wondering if there is anything that I can put my camera in to protect it from potential rain. I would like something that will protect is with a lens attached while being attached to my neckstrap around my neck as I am hiking/walking. Any suggestions?


Rain soon in Alaska? Not going to happen too soon according to National Weather Service. Snow is much more likely for the few months.

The so-named car show that was part of the Sports Vintage Racing Association (SVRA) program at the Sebring International Raceway has grown in leaps and bounds from only a few years ago. The closely packed vehicles on the show area proved somewhat of a challenge to photograph, let alone compare to the artful backgrounds that Kim always manages to include in his photography of vehicles.


Nice display of auto-ecstatic "one-offs." You brought us the usual collection of unusual vehicles. Careful, you're close to photo journalism! Thanx

Beautiful animal that is very photogenic. Surprisingly enough snow leopards can be photographed live and untethered in Kalispel, MT! An animal farm there named "Triple-D" has a snow leopard. They also have many others and the animals can be viewed on their web-site. They run a very good operation with each animal allowed to run free in an enclosed environment. Their snow leopard roams it's own stone mountain and on signal from the handler flies from a ledge approximately 30 feet above the photographers to the ground. Their grizzly bear Bruno weighs in at a robust 1,000 pounds but has full respect of the "hot" wire surrounding his enclosure. It was all that separated us. Considered a minor flaw, Triple-D's animals do not wear signs of wild-life inflicted scars in their hides, no claw marks or other signs of survival. They even had an amir leopard that was an incredibly beautiful animal. Unlike some locations that offer animal shoots Triple-D has a staff vet, and their animals are well cared for. In addition to Triple-D the Glacier National Park is a short drive away. The area adds Flathead Lake and could entertain serious photographers for many days. No language barriers, can be accessed by private vehicles, and no passport is required.

I like this one better than yesterday's Caddie. A little less gaudy & understated, beautiful nonetheless.


Absolutely dripping with class and style. Glad I don't have to change one of those wheels.

Hubcaps and skirts make it cool. Add a spotlight and trolley wires and it cruises yesterday!

A friend of mine, Andrew, owns an auto shop, "Auto Transformers". He restores, does new builds, crash repairs, etc, etc, just about anything to do with cars.
He/they do some lovely work.


As much as I admire these people they are really the "last cowboys" of our society. The can be found anywhere in the country and if they like they can move to anywhere they want. They are completely unregulated by anything but public opinion. They produce things not normally offered the buying public. They are incredibly creative individuals. They are limited by their own self-restraint. They take immense pride in their work and no two items produced are alike. They do not suffer at the hands of labor unions. They are their own critics and dance to no one else's music. They operate in a totally free environment. If someone dislikes them or their products they do not have concerns, they accept isolated negativity. The enjoy much more freedom in their work than do most others. They are completely self-employed and have no need for others to control their lives. They share many things with photgraphers and are kind of lucky, aren't they?

A new pizza studio in town. I have not had the opportunity to try this out but it sounds better than coal fired pizza.
Conveniently located next door to the ice cream shop.
Best in DL mode.


Wood-fired pizzas have a wonderful flavor. Matches your photograph.
