Default Pics At Calendar Shoot

Here’s some pics I took while doing the calendar shoot at Funfest last week. I didn’t get as many as I would have liked due to constantly having to move my car around for the right lighting and trying to keep the dust wiped off of it.
The Photographer found this lake a few miles outside of Effingham and took several different angles of the car with the lake in the background.

As an added bonus, a couple of fire trucks from the local Fire Dept. just happen to drive by and stopped to ask if they could take some pics of my car with their truck when we were done.
The photographer was more then happy to include them as an added prop for the photo session.

I don’t have any idea what shots he will use for the calendar but it sure made for an interesting evening for taking pics of the car.

Jim,

That must be Lake Sarah! I am thinking about buying a place out there when I retire.

BTW -- how come those two firefighters refused to put the helmets on?

Those are some great pics of a beautiful Vette.
