Happy Sliders Sunday ... seemed appropriate for this classic car for some selective coloring. All done within Lightroom.

The clean lines and distinctive design of the 1963- 67 Corvette Sting Ray will never become unfashionable or out of style. . .

Finally an event I could go to and take photos at. There was a car show in the parking lot of Gemmens and the old Family Fare store.
I've always dreamed of having a Corvette or a Datsun 280Z. I couldn't pass up the opportunity with some cloud reflections.
Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI
I love this color!!!
Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
When I got my film scans back from the lab, when I saw this one I was stoked how good it came out. I wasn't sure when I took this. But the color was popping. I really liked the abstract look of this photograph.

Overall composition showing the Corvette parade there in Ocean City, Maryland. Liked this view with the sunlight sneaking into the scene and on the cars, and overall how the people are all interacting in the scene as well.

The Chevrolet Corvette has gone through many changes over the years. These two are some of my favourite shapes - the C2 on the left which was made from 1963 to 1967, then the C3 on the right which lasted from 1968 all the way through to 1982. It was the era of concealed headlights and even concealed windscreen wipers on the gold C3.

A focus stack of 12 images taken with the Canon R10 and processed in-camera. The two 1/18th scale models were displayed in my lounge room with a backdrop of an abstract landscape silk painting. Natural daylight from the right and a small cool white LED light panel giving a fill of light from the left front.
The models range from a very cheap Maisto (the blue C2) to a much better quality Norev model on the right.
I am working on the rest of the Corvettes to build a full set. It ain't a cheap hobby! ; )
