    You're welcome and thanks a bunch @verde742. Great to have you following the thread

    Thank you @Jethro. I actually do put some of them in calendars and books, but there are ones where they have too many things in them where they are not good enough, even if they are still decent.

    Thanks again @Shutter Speed - I appreciate it.

    You're welcome and thanks Joe (@oldsjoe) - great to have you aboard.

    The Mooneyes entry. It looks to have a Model T body and ran over 200 mph in previous years.

    Thanks again @verde742. You're welcome @mountaingoat64. I can definitely see where salt fever comes from and after being there, I can see where you can get a lot of different experiences depending on where you were at any given time. I hope to do much better next year with regard to capturing cars during their actual speed runs. Thanks so much for taking the time to look at my images and your comments.

    Brilliant stuff as always and thanks for letting us in on it!

    My buddy runs the #43 32 5w coupe (red oxide finish), originally the Roy Fjastad (sp?) car. It was running at Bonneville this year. Don't know if you captured it or not. I'd like to get a great pic for him as a gift from me if you have one (if you have one it'll be great I'm sure!). Please PM me with details of how this might work. $'s waiting. Thanks.

  17. Dan, thank you for the Bonneville photos and photography lessons, good stuff.

    Check out how the salt off the rear tire sprayed into the fender. Cool and very cool pic.

    Thanks @Dino 64 and @57tailgater - glad you like the picture of that incredible '34 roadster. Dino 64 - the actual effect was not very hard - I used something from a package that is a Photoshop add in called Topaz Texture Effects. Luckily it was a decent capture in the first place.
    Here is a pure B&W version of it which I also liked.

    - Glad you found yourself Mike. You're car seems to have done pretty well

    You're welcome and thanks Chris @Happydaze. Unfortunately I did not get a shot of your friend's car - I don't recall even seeing it.
    You're very welcome John (@John Lee Williamson) - thanks.

    This is where I wish people left keys in their car with a note that says " Dan - please feel free to move whatever you want or take the car somewhere else" :)

    There will be a few more images, but this thread is starting to wind down. I will be starting my Hot Rod Hill Climb 2018 thread shortly, so please stay tuned for that. Thanks so much to all of you for your comments, contributions and likes.
