Tagged: 55 Chevy Belair

 

This Packard was sitting next to the 1955 Chevy, and while I took my photos of the Chevy, I was continuously drawn to the unique hood ornament and the unique color – a cream with a hint of yellow. I love the graceful pose of the hood ornament – a swan landing in the water – absolutely gorgeous.

Let’s just assume at this point that I won’t tire of hood ornaments. (Spoiler… there’s another photo of one this week too!) This is the same 1955 Chevy that I used for my 24 photo challenge as well, so if you want to see 20+ more images of this car, click here.

Shortly after I’d taken my first photos of the apple for the original photo challenge, I was editing a photo that I’d taken of a Duesenberg, and it occurred to me that I should take the photo challenge at a car show. So today, while at the Elgin History Museum’s car show, I chose a red 1955 Chevy Coupe. I followed the same pattern as with the apples: no bracketing, each shot is planned, every shot is unique. I took 29 images, and I have 25 photos to show below.
