Description It's that Time of the year again.
Especially where it snows.... The classic cars are now coming out from hiding to show and shine.

The title was inspired by , his journal about the first car show of the year right after a terrible blizzard... Thus my title.

This is a hood ornament from a Woodie Wagon.... The "Sail" is supposed to be glass but the wood just suited this surf wagon sooooo well...
Taken at the 1st Pamona Twilight car show of the season.

Some dodging and burning done in P.S. CS.

Thoughts and comments welcomed.

Very nice composition the result is very graphic I would just prefer a little bit more saturated green, but well it's my personnal taste

Yeah, I hear that, I decided to keep it that mint green because of the Surf-esc look the car had... I just might mess with the photo a little bit and see what I can conjure up...

Why thank you! I think that the Burning on the chrome really emphasized the tones in the sky. Thanks a ton Kevin!

Wow!! Thats Purdy!! There's an old rusty one of these at work, but the colorful part of the ornament is gone, and I"ve wondered what it had looked like before... Now I know.... Nice Capture!!

It is pretty nice. The Carpentry on the ride was flawless....What really made me love it was the fact that it had chips in the hood (I retouched them in p.s.) which showed me that this car is driven. LOL. Thanks for the comment Hogg.

Thanks! You'll get to see some digital stuff that I shot with my new camera, a Canon Powershot A520....Only 4 mp but the optics are better than my olympus c-4040z...
