Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
I LOVE pics like that. I will take a picture of just my door handle or an emblem... It's art to me.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
It's in the details. Anyone can take pics but if you can pull out the details and highlight them then that's art. IMHO

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
Thanks for the quick and early comments.
I don't think she means anything by it. I guess I just don't need to see the whole car.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
Does your wife seriously call your pictures stupid? Your pics are really good. No offense, but maybe its time to get a new wife.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
I don't understand art (or so I've been told), but I know what I like.
I like your pics.... good stuff indeed.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
If she really thinks they're stupid that's a bummer. I think the pics are very cool.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
You have a good eye. different angles and frame sizes could make the rest "photography" worthy. #4,15, and the last one are pretty good shots. Sometimes the background makes all the difference and editing makes a so so shot look like magic. I say if you enjoy taking the photos then pursue it. You would be suprised how many families want to have their toddler pictured on a rusty old patina truck, and you may get to keep the photo prop!! Thats My baby, photographed by my wife I dont own the truck dang it!

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
would love to have that chevelle with the 427 tho. great shots don't see why your wife doesn't like them but then again many women don't woo over cars and trucks like we do.great shots once again keep up the good works, maybe you could turn your hobby into a money making job.that pic with the little girl was coooool.

Re: Are my pics "art" or as the wife says "stupid"
ART! You must be married to a redhead too? hehe, jk..Good pics!, It takes a ton of patience sometimes at show for people to get out of the way! I am always fighting to get my reflection out of the shots and or unwanted backgrounds.. just wish I had a better camera. Keep it up!
