Hey everyone,

If you get impatient waiting for my new images, you can look at some from last year's GNRS.

Here is a link to the whole gallery: http://www.pbase.com/dlgphoto/gnrs2011&page=all

Here is a link to see it as a slide show: http://www.pbase.com/dlgphoto/gnrs2011&view=slideshow

Tons more to come for the 2012 show. Please stay tuned.

 

You sir, have an amazing talent. Capturing both the Art and essence of a moment in time and the subject. I look forward to your submissions and am continually blown away!

 

Dan,

Your pics are really great. We were fortunate enough to have our custom at the 2011 GNRS. It is a great source to showcase your work.

Joe

 

I don't know why anybody woulld call this torture, I kinda like it.

 

Excellent selection of images Dan, and your exactly right, everything starts with making an great image in the first place! Oh, and if these are wacky, then lets get whacked!

 

Thanks jb39Chev, Joe, R. Seghi, hotrd32. Here is my next wacky shot.

 

Dan-

I always look forward to your posts. Really great effects and a real hoot to view. I for one really enjoy your talents. Thanks for posting.

 

You Rock!!

Love the pics....going to check out your other ones!

 

Very cool. I was there and this make it look like I was tripping. I wasn't but you bring a whole new flavor to the show. Very talented.

Like I told the kid, "Your musics not too loud , its just like OKC, it sucks!"

 

Dude your photos are great.

 

Dan, whilst trying not to sound like a broken record, your work is amazing. Absolutely amazing. Thank you for taking the time to post each and every one of these incredible images.

I eagerly await more updates.

Dan, we all know that hot rodding is taking a stock vehicle and modifying it to make it your own, your photographs take that concept one step further and show how you can alter a photograph to make it a piece of artwork! I'am very impressed with your work!

 

Amazing pictures!

 

Wow guys! I am blushing! Thanks for all these great, wonderful comments! More coming. Let's start today out with Larry Watson's Thunderbird.

Thanks to Roger O'Dell for letting me know this was the original not a recreation

 

Actually a plymouth I believe. Belongs to scotty chops out of cali right?

 

Thanks choptvan! I changed it to a 35 Plymouth.

 

Those shoots are so nice, they should be in a hard cover book.

 

Great shots Dan!!

You gotta give a little style to your watermark though!!

 

Thanks Gassers Garage and graverobber63! I actually am working on some self published books on these types of images which will be available in both hard and soft cover through Blurb.com. The first one will be by subject - ie Customs or Customs and Rods. There will also be some car show specific ones in cases where I think I have enough good pictures to do it.

graverobber63 - I could not agree with you more on the watermark! I have been trying to come up with an efficient way of doing it. Right now I use Lightroom to resize the image, make sure its the right colorspace and add the watermark - all in a single click, but it seems to only allow using their text based watermarks. I need to look deeper.

Anyhow - here are a few mono or almost mono versions of some of the shots seen previously.

 

Great shots, you are showing these car off using your skills to their full advantage. that Chrysler is perfect.

 

Great shots as always Dan, I just love this one. Very Kool!

 

Can you do your magic with this picture? This is a staple of tradition and I just think it would look very Kool.

 

Great work,,especially the 32 pickup,,I'll admit it I'm bias but I did enjoyed every single one! HRP

 

Once again - thanks to all of you for your continued support of this slowly building thread. If you had questions, I will PM you in the morning.

 

Yer' work is Faaar Out Man! I haven't seen a perspective like that since the early seventies.

Nice!

 

Thanks Rocky and John! Let's get it rollin for today.
