I’m finally at the end of my journey – and our final destination is Paso Robles (just 4 hours north of LA), yes, I’ve been to Italy, the Greek Islands etc, however, this is the biggy for me…. the West Coast Kustom Nationals – touted as the biggest and best kustom car show in the USA. And, can I say I’m not disappointed, it’s like swimming in a land of the best and coolest cars in the world, (pity I don’t have my 57 Cadillac with me).... Now this car is exactly as it appears here – not tricky Photoshop work at all… it has had 6 inches chopped from the roof and also the bottom of the car… It’s a driver and is actually staying at the hotel I’m staying at. As I’m writing this, I’m wearing a “Noble Fabrications” black T-Shirt given to me and my daughter as a present from the friendly driver. How cool is that! I am also photographing the 3-day event for an Australian magazine called “Hot Rod Revival” – so I’ll try and restrain myself and only upload one or two images as I don’t want to bore you all…. Anyway, how cool is this car!
My beautiful old beast, Queenie, waiting to one day be ‘the’ car in my life again. / I love you Queenie!
Classic show car – custom painted in tangerine orange, chopped, lowered and chromed.

Photo taken at All Ford Day in Auckland, New Zealand and then photoshopped into a nicer surrounding.
First of all, big kudos go to fellow bubbler Kevin Kroeker, who gave me a great idea of some add’l post processing steps which I had not tried before, until this image. HDR Image of an antique shiny black car with tons of chrome. I don’t know why, but I absolutely love this image. Hope you do as well. My art with 1000+ views
As at any classic car meet – there is chrome, and it is always polished and shiny Canon 300D / 18-55mm lens
This kinda jumps off the screen at you, so duck. :-) I don’t know about you, but I really like this. Of course I’m prejudice. The car is real, from a car show I went to.The rest is added features from Flaming Pear software, such as Flood, Glare, and Organic Edges.
My friend Howie’s ride, 1938 Ford. He has won awards with this car in shows. It’s nice. Hope you like it too!
This is the Chrome grill from the auto in this series called Pinkie from my show called OldBoyToys a look at the autos of a collector. As you can see the grill back in the 1930 to 1970s were a work of art in its self often the reason a person would by a car was to have this grill as a symbol of who they were! It was quite striking to see something as bright and as bold come at you in the night blazing with full headlights reflecting off of its front bumper!
Two images blended. The car and the landscape. Sepia tone added, as well. Oh, and added the birds too. Hope you like! Add me to your watch list now

This is a compilation of the car, sky and birds. I used the flood effect for the wet floor, and treated the image with Mr. Contrast to ge the dreamy effect. Finally, I used lighting effects to enhance the shadowing. Hope you like! Add me to your watch list now / My Bubblesite

Sometime ago I found a few of these classic cars near the side of the road and recently I finally was in the area again, to get a few more shots. This is an HDR image.
