Smile June Photo Contest (Background Monte)

Okay new theme for June photo contest is
BACKGROUND MONTE
IN AN EFFORT TO GET MORE PLAYERS THIS SHOULD BE A THEME THAT EVERYONE CAN PLAY WITH.

If your ride is in the Shop or Service Dept. you can play
if you are driving you can play !!


Take a photo anywhere you like with anything ( no Xrated) and your Monte is in the background
similar to but not exactly like the one I have attached.
It is not my entry.

Photo's from this spring of 2017
try to avoid the Car show clutter.
(Have them in by the end of the Day June 5th Monday)

Tried to put this up last night and when I got all done, I lost the internet connection and it didn't post

We'll need to add a date to the entry deadline eventually.

Here is entry #1:

Usually it's kind of hard to not let the BudChev be the subject in a photo. Take a picture of it with anything - it stands out and steals the show. The only way to keep it in the background is to unfocus it, so that makes the challenge fun. Even totally blurred, the BudChev is still recognizable.

From a local car show a while back. I was shooting photos of a Corvette (that belongs to our mayor, btw) and got my car parked on the street in the background...

Smile Okay, I finally got my photo taken

So today was a meeting of the Nebraska Rod and Custom Assoc. right here saw some beautiful rides last night. This was kind of a surprise because I had no idea they were going to be in town.
So I got a few good shots this evening.
This is a 1963 Chevy Impala SS Custom in a Color called Laurel Green, according to the owner who was doing the windows when I pulled up. They even had a book about the Car and it's restoration.

Smile Some other good shots to view.

These photos are not for the entry but were good looking Cars to say the least. Sadly when I took the one with the 64 chevy I has to park next to a Pruius
