Apparently I have a thing for Corvettes. · 09:41 PM

I was breaking in my brand new lens with my nephew and he pointed out that I seem to favor the 'Vette as my car of choice. We were trying some different backgrounds and I was quite pleased with our results.

This one is easily my favorite. It looks like I brought the dragon to life with this one.

My nephew took the creative lead on these two.

His favorite

My favorite

And this last one just for good measure.

Thanks for taking a look!

Your nephew has good taste, the 1966 Stingray is my second favorite Corvette, the first being the 1963 split window version.
These pictures came out much better than your first shot, good work!

Do you mean the first image on the post, or the first image of the toy car? I'm assuming the latter.

Yeah, definitely. This time I used a pair of LED lights and I picked backgrounds that look good when they're dim. Dim hot pink appears red. Dim yellow just looks like -- kidney failure.
