Chevelles are so common as to be mundane. Finding a unique picture of a Chevelle is like trying to take a unique picture of a neighborhood house built from a blueprint. Yes, its possible, and yes, the car might look good, but its so common that everybody's already done it. I decided to get in closer, and focus on this one's stamp of power.
I had previously published a photograph of Eno River's Fews Ford in the middle of sumemr in glorious green and blue regalia. This time, it is in the dead of winter, taken at sunset with an infrared camera. I recently converted a Sony NEX-5 to take infrared photographs, and I must say, I'm pleased with the results.
This is one of my favorite pictures I've taken. I would like to retake it with newer gear and more knowledge, but despite the limitations, I feel it came out nicely. I took this, along with around 40 failed versions of it, at Ripley's Aquarium in South Carolina. Between all of the attempted exposures, this is the only one that actually came out like I wanted it to. A customer once bought one in 20"x30". I admit some jealousy, as I've never seen it printed above 10"x15". Awards and Recognition: Wake Med Reflections Gallery - July 2014 through October 2014 roguemark Gallery October 2014
