p.1 #1 · Car portraits- pre 1916


Taken a few years ago at the annual whoop-dee-do, held that year in Coos Bay, Oregon. More than 100 cars, all 1915 or older. And they went on daily drives up and down the coast.
Scanned from slides.
Five photographs.

p.1 #2 · Car portraits- pre 1916


This is a great presentation, Charlie. With the same perspective on each shot, it would make for a pretty cool wall hanging series framed together.
And you who claims to have no tech savvy with the camera...ha! It's obvious you took your time and attended very closely to the compositons on these.
They're too danged pretty in color to present in b/w, but I'll bet they'd work that way, too.

Thanks for the comments, guys.
It was serendipity for me. I was camping along the coast all summer and happened to notice a couple of really old cars driving on U.S. Highway 101 in Coos Bay. I made a U-turn and followed them to a motel that was filled with pre-1916 cars! I followed them every day for a week as they went on their 50-100 mile sightseeing excursions, much to the delight of everyone they passed.
These cars were absolutely wonderful.
