The Red Ford Dragster

Went to a drag race out in the San Fran Bay Area last summer. This was a car owned and raced by a friend of mine. I just count pass up taking a detail shot of the hood scoop.

Ohhhhhhh...sexy momma! I love muscle cars. Ricer burners? Fer kids!
I love the DOF on this. Very nice. And simple film too. Can't beat that. Colors or not overly done. I hate that cartoon colors. These colors are sublime.
Did you turn down the colors a little bit or was it like this?
 
Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm a sucker for narrow depth of field. The colors are about right. I didn't mess with it other than just general curves adjustments. I love photographing cars. My cousin is working on a Formula 1 pit crew in the Bay Area, so hopefully I'll get some shots when I visit this summer.
