Bonneville Coverage....After the Crowds Went Home!

I arrived Wednesday. Lots of cars running including a few that I have not seen covered here as far as I could tell.

Mmmmm, Salt.











Can't get enough of this streamliner. Built in Wichita Kansas by Tom Hanna.

If there was ever a car that begged for some HDR Photoshop hocus pocus...........

 

OOOOoooooooooooooooo this is gonna be gooooood......

 

That second sunrise shot is really cool.

 

Doug, did I mention that I recently married Carol, who teaches photography at Apple and shares her equipment and vast knowledge with me?

 

No...but congratulations!!!!
Sounds like a perfect match.....

 

Thanks. It's the same sunrise as the first shot, taken about 300 feet to the southeast, but using a graduated neutral density filter on the sky. I'm just starting to experiment with those and sometimes I get lucky.

 

Thanks. She was my teacher first and she liked the car shots in my iPhoto library.

 

This car actually had onboard hydraulic lifts. Or maybe that's common...I don't know. Turns out real hot rods do "lay frame". Excellent use of flat finish.

 

Great stuff!! B'Ville is on my bucket list for next year. Your photos have got me really cranked up! Thanks a ton for sharing them with us.

 

The power of the HAMB is having members who take the time to post great photos, of Bonneville, and of other HAMB-related stuff...these are all great, and thanks for posting!

 

Thanks for sharing the photos Tom. I'd say that batch is worth an A.

 

....that 34 maroon roadster may be my new favorite, "Bitchinest car in the valley!!!"

 

Nice pics, thanks

 

I'm with you on that one, in all valleys! Impossible to fully appreciate in photos. You'll see more of the '34 before this thing runs its course.

Lee's buddy...senior moment on your name...?? Did you know that Lee found his original tufted Mc Fall upholstery from the old Nomad on Ebay and got it? Pretty good shape too, for use in the new car.

 

Here we go.

 

Hard to beat this one, my fav also!

 

thank you pics are perfect.

 

nice pics

 

Thanks Tom Now I really wanna go there

 

I know, I've been meaning to for quite a while now, never plan ahead. So I just decided to go on a whim Monday.

 

Great pictures. Thanks for sharing them.

 

Great pics Tom. It's really cool to see all the pics from different photographers. Everyone has a different perspective, just like the competitors.

 

Great pictures, thanks for sharing.

 

This thing is sick!

 

Those pictures are awesome! Thanks for sharing!

 

How the heck do you do this? I thought this kind of turning was done on a mill? Love it. And that maroon roadster. Gary

 

You can do it freehand with a die grinder or drill. Takes practice.

Nice shots Tom!
