Chrome Reflections 1

Posted by amy (Nanaimo, BC, Canada) on 3 June 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

I'm going to do a series which I call Chrome Reflections. My husband and I went to the Three Hills Street Freaks Cruise In on Saturday. This tiny little town of about 3000 people grows exponentially for this one day when hundreds of car enthusiasts cruise to this town for a show and shine then, yes, a cruise which usually lasts late into the night. On average about 1800 vehicles will be there through the course of the day. I decided to try something different and concentrate on one aspect of the vehicle. This is how I tell the story of the vehicles.

Just tell me what you think. I'm a big girl.... I won't cry for long. ;-)
