I had, what I thought, was some pretty good shots of my Vette. They were all out side my house and I saw a thread or two of some other Vettes where someone said pics look a lot better out in the open with trees and stuff for a background...so, took the Vette to the nearest park and took some new shots...what ya think?

I am no photo expert but I took this one at Bloomington this summer and feel it is by far the best I have ever taken. It was a sunny day and the car was parked under a tree. I think yours is a great pic but the color seems to be a little different than your sig pic. Which one is closer to the true color? I see you have some Rikens (I think). I just got a sweet deal on some and will put them on my 87 vert so it doesn't look like all the rest of them out there.

The color sort of changes depending on the light. In front of the garage, it was bright but the sun was diffused by light could cover. My second pic you can see the difference in the shaded and full sunlight color.

Yes, they are Riken's and I sawed off the top of the center cap and glued on black 84 Corvette centers to match the wheels.

I like those pics.

Here's one on a cloudy day with trees reflecting off the Vette.
