It was the last Cruise In for the year, and I'm happy to report, only about 80 degrees!  I'll be sorry to see this event end for the year, but these car buffs don't like to bring their cars out in bad weather.  I'm sure they spend a lot of elbow grease keeping the cars this shiny!  So in addition to the better temperature, I think that having the sun lower in the sky also helped.  Very nice light today.  f/5.6 at 1/100, ISO400, 145mm.

The final Cruise-In of the summer and I'm happy to say I had a tough time chosing between three photos tonight.  And I liked all of them better than my last month's photo.   Not that I'm looking to become a car photographer.  Just looking.  One thing I will say about the Cruise-In, it always seems to land on the 100 plus days around here.  And it starts at 5pm which is the hottest time of the day.  So I spend my time wandering around a sweltering asphalt parking lot with the sun glaring off lots of shiny chrome, and I think I'm becoming conditioned to sweat when I see old cars!  At least looking at photos of old cars reminds me of being really hot.
