It’s Almost Car Show Season

Today’s Post by Joe Farace

Automobiles come in many different sizes, colors, and shapes making them ideal photographic subjects and on almost any weekend day—weather permitting—you’ll find a car show in your area. Then there’s impromptu shows not associated with any organization and are staged on a regular basis at a local donut shop or burger joint. Look for flyers about these kinds of show wherever you see cool cars parked.

In addition to having blog posts about car museums that you can visit, my goal for the 2022 car season (partial schedule shown below) is to visit local car shows and write about them here, including some photographs and tips on how I made the images. I also plan to post what car shows that I will be attending in the hope that you can join me in an informal photo walk through the show as we make some fun photographs together.

Regular readers of this and my other blogs know I often use car shows to test new cameras and lenses. If that’s the case, you can get a sneak peek of what I’m working on and I’ll be glad to show you the gear, let you handle it, and answer any questions you might have. Looking forward to meeting some of you at a car show this summer.
