I've been to a few vintage car shows hoping to get beautiful pictures of old cars, but end up with pictures of cars with their hoods open. It's hard for me to admire the great lines of an automobile with hoods and doors open, and I really don't find it attractive.

My question would be: would it be rude to ask the owner to shut the hood and doors for a photo? Is there a good reason they leave them open?

My wife makes me delete photos of her with her mouth open... just saying.
I've been a vintage car nut for long enough to know that 99% of vintage car nuts won't mind if you ask and will happily oblige if they can and don't have other more pressing matters to attend to.

Like a camera show breaking out in the middle of a car show. When you brandish hardware like that, even non-photogs are gonna notice.

I've noticed that myself. Get down low; get close, and let the lens do the rest!

If you happen to find the owner, I find most are more than willing to oblige with anything you want, as long as it helps make their car look better.

If you have any keepers among your photographs, you might offer to share them with the owner.

Too bad going into a time of year where the shows are scarce.

At least there are a few museums I can check out.
