Thank you, Mark. I found that Studebaker in an old garage along U.S. 60 in West Virginia.

Nicely found and framed Ben!

Thanks Louis & Moogle.

Very interesting scene Ben; more context than most classic car photos

Thanks very much!

Here's a Studebaker in Eastern Idaho. Shot July in 99 degree heat on TriX, 90mm lens w. yellow-green filter. Scanned from Ilford print.

Would've had it up earlier but I've been off my feet for a couple of months with a broken foot. Printing is slow and tedious on crutches - I don't recommend it.

Another from the same day: 90mm lens on Rollei i.r. film. Scanned from Ilford print.

Thanks Mark.

I like these John O! The quarry/hill background contrasts with the cars and implies a relationship and order between them.

Thanks. The quarry owner went to a lot of trouble to pose these relics. I hope to get more processed in a couple of weeks.

I'm not that much of a car guy, but when visiting the New York State Fair last month, I was struck by the design of this 1946 State Police car and figured that I'd give it a try. The odd angle and cropping was a result of trying to avoid the rope barrier that closely surrounded the thing. With State Troopers everywhere, I figured that trespassing might not be in my best interests.

While switching to infrared film the owner stopped to chat. That took long enough that the windshield glare became a real problem. I had move to full frontal to take this one on Kodak High Speed Infrared (exp. 1991). The film has a fog of n.d. = 0.2 but still has enough dynamic range to handle this "rust and dirt" scene. Scanned from an Ilford print.
