Thanks! They do seem a little blue. I tend to adjust my photos a little on the cool side anyway, but with the overcast/darker sky, I think I may have over done them a little.

What was the lens and the settings? i always have trouble with balance in overcast like that

 

[Rudders331cobra]

Great photos man. Hopefully next time I can make it. If I get word in advance

I was shooting with a Tamron 10-24mm lens. I had the white balance on Auto because I take everything in RAW and it allows me to manipulate the white balance as I see fit when I'm processing the photos. I think I just got carried away with the slider with this batch.

The show is always the first Saturday of the month at Classic BMW. The next show will be February 2nd.

I am color blind, so when I shoot I carry around a white/gray card and use it for custom white balance.

made one of these, use the white side for white balance

I was going to go to C&C, but it was raining out the night before I went to bed so I turned off my alarm. It's hard to get out of bed for C&C cuz it's so damn early and cold which makes it hard to get out of my nice warm bed. lol.

I've decided to wait longer before I go. I have been getting there at 7, but it;s too early and cold lately. I think waiting until at least 8 will be better.

I got a shot of your car in October.
