At least...

...something getting off the beaten track.
Very pure, very nice.

NO SUBJECT

Nice and sharp, I was just recently researching hood ornaments. I had taken a pic at the Natl. Automobile museum in Reno and forgotten what car it was from. I like the Pontiacs and airplane inspired ones. I like the blue background.

The person I was with captured this too but from the other direction and it didn't look good. Too many background distractions and not tight enough on the subject.

The blue background is from the car that was next to it. The Pontiac was parked under a tree and the light was coming from the side. I couldn't have lit it better in the studio.

I don't care what anyone says. Those Olympus blues are not available in the other systems.
