Not The Ordinary - Paint Job
by lanakay

This is just one of the rather extraordinary cars that show up in our High School Homecoming Parade. The parade itself takes probably 20 minutes to get from the car wash, where everyone lines up, to the school.

There's no floats, and we haven't had a marching band for several years. The parade is made up of the Junior High and High School football teams on fire trucks, and the Homecoming candidates.

Lana, I love this shot. First, a vintage Corvette like this is a car I wouldn't mind personally owning. She's a real beauty. Her paint job definitely also makes her "not the ordinary". Second, I really like the overall image. It has the essence of home coming and helps the viewer feel like they were watching the parade in real life. The flowing balloons show the car's movement. You did a really fine job with your SX50 in capturing the scene. That must make you feel really good.

A nice shot of the event, Lana. Memorable times for all the youngsters especially.
