Description
Yesterday we visited the National Automobile Museum in Reno, Nevada. Tara lasted 2 1/2 hours. I went back for 3 more hours:)
This opening photo from the museum (can you tell more are coming?) is of a 1938 12-cylinder Packard Convertible Coupe. There are many marks of this being Packard's top of the line model...even down to cloisonné hubcap medallions.

Great detailing and a fine capture. Great camera angle really stretches out the look of this classic machine. I cannot believe the lack of noise at such a high ISO, speaks to how great digital cameras have become. You must have been working under some very poor lighting to push it that far. Great control Mac.
Tommy Like!
Superb capture my friend. God bless.
Good work with the photo aspect, Bill. Considering how cramped it must have been in there, the low lighting and so on, great job! We even see the cloisonné hub cap medalions you mention. Even if the camera IS modern with a lot of capacity and frills, it's the person using it who makes the adjustments, frames the subject and pushes the shutter release. This auto is sure in great shape! I also appreciate the art deco background (doors, black and silver to the left, etc.) - so very fitting for this type of car. Expecting more, Bill! And thanks again for the inside view of the Spruce Goose! :-)
Love the colour of this smart car!!
Oh cool, have been in Reno 1986, there was an Oldtimer-Museum! beautiful clear photo, great car and polished color!
A superb photo, and a car I could actually get excited about, I fancy myself in that, and there is room for a whole pack of dachshunds.
Wonderful capture Bill This is a sweet ride
That looks fantastic Bill. Time well spent :)
A beautiful car and a super shot.
Magnificent car my friend, loved the colors, congratulations!
A beautiful capture of a beautiful machine, Bill - That is one sweet ride! Like Roxy, I'm amazed at the lack of noise at such a high ISO. Gotta get me one of those new Canons...
Wow! What a beauty indeed! I love that hood ornament. I can see that your lens loves everything about this gorgeous vehicle...
Beautiful Bill. Pure class.
Wow!
I still don't know how I missed seeing this car. I mean seriously ... I didn't even know it was in the building! LOL! Tunnel vision, I suppose. That, and avoiding the annoying docent. :P I'm glad you took this fabulous picture, because this has to be an all-time favorite for me. Such gorgeous lines! Nice work, babe!
Amazing image my friend!!!!!Bravissimo!:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
A great shot Bill, looking forward to more!
This is an awesome shot Bill. And what a fantastic car, built like a tank they were then. I also like that colour as well. Over here up until the 60's every car was black. But then isn't that what Henry Ford said "You can have any colour as long as it's black"
Fantastic shot - love the POV that accentuates the size of this classic car & all those great reflections. I can even see you taking the photo...
Outstanding auto.....
What a super elegant old car. Love the color too.
Very nice capture Bill.
Superb POV in this pic of the classic, adorned magnificently with beautiful color, blends, reflections and clarity, Bill. Headlights typical of 1938, especially on GM autos. They sure don't make 'em like they used to.
What a beauty! Well done.
very beautiful image
wonderful
