My other weakness, that is. Unfortunately, my weakness is fostered by my husband whose weakness this was first... by now you've seen the photo and know what I'm talking about so I'll quit mumbling. We bought our 7th car today. I know, that's a lot, but sometime after we bought my 71 Mercedes Benz 250 last year we started connecting it to a dream I had proposed some several years ago early in our relationship:
To Buy A Cool Car For A Daily Driver And Replace It Every Year Or Two So We Can Experience As Many Cool Cars As We Can. Well, since you put it
that way, I guess it's okay we're a little odd in that department. Before we made our purchase today, I said to him, "We have to sell three of our cars this year." Yes. Seven is admittedly too many. If you know me you know my grand list of cars. If you do not know me, well, just speculate. However, for now, I am basking in the glow of a new Land Yacht known as a '72 Mercury Marquis, new 460ci engine, transmission, and exhaust with 2500 miles. We were aiming muscle car, but I think that's still aiming a little high for me in my husband's eyes. Maybe next year.
After many shots experimenting with the low light of the post-midnight evening and various settings on my camera I chose one with classic new-car composition, night portrait setting with flash. I used a fence post to steady the camera as the longer exposures came out blurry.
