I was wanting to get everyone's thoughts on their opinion of the pictures on the pictures own merits, but to be truthful, there is a specific requirement of the PPG calendar to shoot the car in it's local setting. Something or somewhere to add interest to the picture to include with the car itself. They specifically do not want dark sky or white box photos. So the ringer pic is 'The Tower shot' which anchors it here in San Antonio. It's a cool pic because it's the only one we took with the lens open so the trolley cars passing by (yellow and orange streaking lights) and other lights provide a colorful night shot.
There is something serendipitous about the Tower of the Americas too since it was built in '68 for the World's Fair so it's a genre correct view as well, in my opinion.
I agree with those who suggested the parking lights should be on. They were on most of the evening until it got late into the night. I wish the lights were were on for The tower shot. As far as which way facing, I have to admit the rear 3/4 view is my favorite look at these early second gen's so I am guilty of setting the car in this position. Owner preference I guess, like adding a rear spoiler to a formula (which I would do)! LOL.
That's my 2 cents and I truly appreciate everyone's input on this homework assignment today!
