Travel & Outdoor Photography, Tips and Reviews
The new year is almost here and it’s time for a new calendar. I hope you enjoy our new 2012 vintage car calendar. You can print it on plane or photo paper, save it to your computer, share it with your friends. I will also be producing a 2012 Colorado calendar in the next couple of weeks.
The Good Times Car Show was held at Bancraft Park in Old Colorado City on Sunday, August 21, 2011. Hosted By Colorado Cruizers ~Rocky Mountain Mustangers ~ Southern Colorado Mopars ~ Modern Mopar Muscle Club of Southern Colorado. Up to 400 Mustangs, Muscle cars, Hot Rods and Classic cars.
I have been photographing local car shows for the past couple of years. It was a beautiful clear day at 70° and a perfect day for a car show. I am always impressed with the care and detail the goes into the restoration of these classic cars. Talking with the owners of these cars is interesting. It’s fun to hear the stories of where they found these cars and how they restore them. You can really see the pride they have in their vehicles.

Now for the photography. The photographs in the gallery below were shot and processed for HDR or High Dynamic Range photography. Each photograph is actually nine photographs. Each shot at the same f-stop and all shot at different shutter speeds then combined with the HDR program called photomatix Pro 4. The program takes the best exposed part of each photograph and combines them to give you more detail in the highlights and shadows and has the ability to also create some pretty cool special effects like the surreal look you may see in some of the photographs in this gallery. If you are interested in learning more about HDR. Just click on the related articles listed below.

The Cruise Above the Clouds Car Show was on Saturday September 11, 12 2010. It is annually brought to Woodland Park, Colorado by the Teller County Classic, Custom and Special Interest Car Club. The show featured over 200 Classic Cars, Hot Rods and Muscle Cars. This was the second year we photographed this car show with temperatures in the 70’s and a beautiful sunny day made for an incredible event. In the afternoon the car owners went on the Poker Run to Cripple Creek, Colorado. The car show continued on Sunday in Cripple Creek. Each photo in this gallery starts off as 5 separate photographs at 5 different exposures and combined with a process called HDR or High Dynamic-Range photography. This allows one to see the detail in the shadows and highlights. It also has the ability to create some pretty cool special effects.
