Nice colours, and composition... probably would have benefitted from increased depth of field, (slightly, just to improve the sharpness on the nearest can wheel....)... but I like it all the same... :)

Thanks guys for the compliments. And I agree Barry about the dof. It was crazy with all of the people there and it made for quite a challenge.

I like it, but as already mentioned I'd probably like it even more with more DoF. Good shot though!

As for the environment you shot it in, that's definitely a challenge! I like to shoot in busy/hectic environments once in a while just because it's a good personal challenge. If you can "tune it out" just enough to keep yourself composed when surrounded by distractions, then you can compose a good image. Good thing to practice if you're ever going to shoot weddings, kids, pets, etc. It takes a lot of concentration under situations where someone/something/everything is constantly in motion!

Thanks to both of you. Yeah, shooting car shows is always a challenge. 12 people gathered around one car and by the time you get people to move, here come another 5. Then add in the "hey, can you move a few feet to your left, your shadow is in the way" :rofl:
