Feeling Nostalgic

We're currently on the second time around the calendar when it comes to events that have been cancelled due to The Plague, and this weekend marks the second year in row that one of my favourite events, the Saint-Lambert Classic Car Exhibition, was cancelled.  I know that in the great scheme of things a cancelled car show isn't very high on the list of current world problems, but it was always a fun outing.  Classic cars and good music make for an entertaining day.  To help get back to a happier time, here is the hood of a 1967 GTO and some shots of the Baby Boomer's Band.  The hood ornament was a nice little example of how the light can fall differently on an uneven surface.  You can clearly see the demarcation down the center of the hood where the ornament it located.  A little visual touch that caught my eye.  The other two shots of the band and their fans are hopefully an appetizer for what soon may be able to return.  The photograph of the hood ornament was taken at f/4, 1/8000sec, ISO 400 at 48mm.  Here are the two other photographs.

f/2.8, 1/800sec, ISO 100 at 115mm
f/2.8, 1/500sec, ISO 100 at 70mm

Hopefully my complaining will soon end and we can all go back to seeing classic cars, old-time rock and roll bands and whatever else our little hearts desire shortly.  It certainly will do us a world of good.
