2006 Exotic Italian Car Show
Today I attended the 5th annual Exotic Italian car show in Memphis, put on each year by Memphis Cars Italia on Fathers' Day weekend, 100% of proceeds benefitting St. Jude. children's research hospital. 
It rained most of the weekend, and yet there were a few cars out there anyway. I think the water drops on the cars made a neat effect.
1989 Countach 25th Anniv. Edition, took Peoples' Choice
Saw this Fiat in the parking lot at last year's show, owner said they had just done a frame-off restoration at that time.
This one took best of show, one of only 9 in the world
I was really surprised with how the pics came out, mainly the lighting. I didn't think they would look that great but I guess the brighter overcast sun when the rain started to slack off gave the pics a certain look that I think worked pretty well.
There were no photoshop alterations done in any of the pics other than Unsharp Mask.

yep and now it adorns my new 20.1" widescreen display on my new rig I just built.
*edit* anyone else think the red Maserati's front end looks very similar to the Aston Martin style?

yup crazy ain't it
the more I look at this pic the more I like the way it came out. If I had known it was going to look that good I would have asked the owner to move that sign.
