Sorry Nirofo, I meant to respond to this yesterday evening, but got wrapped up in some rubber;) and forgot.
I really like the shinyness of the photo, especially with the raindrops. Water droplets always improves a car photo, but I don't think folks would like me to whip out a water spray gun with my camera. It works well on flower photos too. Have you got anymore old car photos?

Hi psyberyeti

The photo was taken way back in 1992 with a Nikon FM2n + 24mm lens on Kodachrome 64 slide film, there was some sort of rally on at the time. I don't normally photograph old cars but couldn't resist this one with it's beautiful polish and shiny chrome fittings, unfortunately I don't have any other old car photos apart from my old Volvo that is. I use the water spray trick on flowers and fungi myself occasionally, but in this instance it was a case of in between showers!
