Spoiler Alert
Lens: FA 31 Limited Camera: K-3 Photo Location: Hotest Place in SE Texas 
Posted By: Sailor, 08-25-2016, 04:22 PM

This week - over a couple of Texas-hot summer days - I clayed, polished and waxed my car. This afternoon, as I was about to close the garage door and grab a cold beer, I noticed the light/shadow topography of the car's "ducktail" spoiler produced by a low (and very hot) sun. It occurred to me that were I to make a photograph, I would call it "Spoiler Alert".

Then, it occurred to me to actually make such a photo, so I went inside and pulled my K-3 out of the cabinet for only the fourth or fifth time this year and shot a couple of pics - both of which I converted to B&W.
