Over the years I've been honing my skills

as a photographer. It's been a hobby for

years, but I'm always learning mostly

through experimentation.

 

 

Here are a few I took back in the fifties and sixties:

 I don't think Chris was there when this pic was taken. I was however, and can tell you when: around 6:15 PM and where: ELTA Headquarters, London, Onterrible, Canada

 John, are you saying I didn't take these pictures in the fifties and sixties? OK, what gave it away? Was it the '71 Mustang Funny Car? winkwink biggrin

 Maybe just a lucky guess Steve.  Great pictures no matter when you took them!  You have the touch.

Great shots Steve, but it was the radial tire in the fore front of the first photo that tipped me! I can look at old black and whites all day long, love em! Thanks for sharing.

 I guess I should have drawn longer hair on Mark and photoshop a 'stubby brew" into his hand to make it a little more believable Huh?

Thanks for all the kudos guys, I guess everyone has figured out that these weren't taken in the '50s or '60s hey? I've done a few more lately, these from the Heritage Ford show a few weeks back.

I dunno John, perhaps the colour is a distraction. B&W pics force you to look at the lines and style....I guess.

Dang Steve! Those photos look great. First impression was that they were taken back in the day...till I saw the Stang.

If these came out in a calender format... I'm sure they'd sell like hotcakes.

Keep up the great work.  biggrin

 That was the plan Nick! It was working pretty good too, but a few guys know me a little too well and knew I wasn't old enough - born in '66.

I took this one about 8 years ago:

A shot from an early ELTA Bash!
