Description Another shot from the Del Mar Car Show
I tried like crazy to get the flags out of the shot
The reflection out of the paint
The bumper
It just wasn't happening
And I liked it too much to leave it be

oh my.
those colors drew me in straight-up.
i think the flag gives it something...the feel, or implication, of a racetrack.
you should be proud of this, s.

Yup, the flag gives somehow a race-feeling.
And I love the sun reflection in the bumper. Makes it look so wonderfull like that what it is - chrome
The color is beautiful too.

And about the motive there is no discussion

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh I can see you And someone else... the hot dog man? Do they stalk you as much as they do it with me? The second I leave the house the hot-dog men come and try to sell me their stuff. It gets annoying but hey, their stuff is delicious and I am glad it's not the candyman. Their stuff is tasty and very evil since fattening! However, back to the sane topic: I love the shot and the composition. The colour are great and it was well worth keeping the reflection since that adds a lot to the shot!

intrinsicvalue In reply to Photo-Moe [2006-05-06 16:09:01 +0000 UTC]

Yes, that is me. I tried like crazy to hide, and it just wasn't happening. I'm glad you like the reflection, that seems to be the consensus anyway, and I think it's growing on me. Thank you also for the

I have some advice for you to get rid of the hot dog men... stop buying their food. See, if you just start saying no, they'll get the hint and leave you alone. But every time you say yes, they're going to come back. I guess I'm not much of a hot dog person so it wouldn't be hard for me, but I'd be in trouble if it were the candyman. To each his own I suppose.

You are somewhat distorted - you manage to remain the mystery woman! Yes, ingrid-fabiola made me like reflections and I have to admit, they are somewhat intriguing and it's fun to play around with them. Mwah, I want to go out there and have fun with mirrors and teapots now

Well I'm not even the person to actually buy hot dogs. If I can, I avoid meat. My landlord just had a go at me since I kinda seperated the dish his wife cooked. It was rice with some vegetables and LOADS of meat. It was just too much so I had to pick some meat out and put it to the side. So yes, our common problem is the candyman. Ha, you can have him, I'll keep my figure!
