I like these images Tom. :thumb Thoughtful composition and the colors are
wonderful. I thought you posted an abstract not to long ago. :scratch

Hey Tom,

Enjoyed the shots, but the second one really makes me try and figure out what it is. I like the symmetry and that the unit on the left doesn't have a top strip showing. That invokes a little tension to the image. :thumb

Morning Tom,

A whole new perspective on Fine Automobile Shooting.

Very nicely seen and captured.

Hi Michael,

Yea, I posted an abstract not long ago. Actually, I've done quite a lot with abstracts over the years. In fact, there's a whole range of photo work I do that I've never exposed to this forum. I like putting cars, planes and a few other things up for exposure but maybe I'll start showing another side to what I do.

Thanks for your comments and support.

Take care,

Tom

Know what you mean Tom. Out of the bunch I've taken or tried to take I
only have a very small handful up for viewing. Just the way it is right now.
Trying to get in the mood to switch gears and kick it up a wee notch. But I
see that as down the road aways. Anywho.... would like to see some of
your abstracts when your ready. :D

I like them :thumb

Not a clue what photos 2 and 3 are of, but they are nice. The last one looks like an eye and my favorite :D

The first two are great! The third is very good. I still like the fourth.

Beautiful work, Tom! :thumb

Randy,

You're a sharp-eyed guy. I left that one stripe off at the top for the very reason you picked up on. The picture was of a portion of cooling slats that covered the intake system on a race car. I then cropped the overall picture down to what you see.....hoping I had created something of interest.

Take care,

Tom

Hi Craig,

I thought I might give a peek at some of the other type shots I like to take. I'm glad you liked them.

Take care,

Tom

Hi Mary Kim,

I'm glad you liked these. #2 is of some body pieces on a race car. #3 depics some velocity stacks that are part of the intake system on a high performance engine. The red parts are actually plastic pieces that are inserted into the stack to keep out dirt and other contaminants when the engine is not running.

Take care,

Tom

Hey Lee,

Thanks for the gracious remarks. I do quite a bit of this kind of work, I just don't show it often. One reason I pay such close attention to your excellent work in this area is that I'm always looking to pick up pointers and ideas from shooters who are really good.

Be well,

Tom
