Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance -- Before & After the Awards, March 2011

Sometimes good picture-taking opportunities at a concours come before and after the awarding ceremony, but one is often at the mercy of the obstructing presence of crowds of spectators. In this gallery, I am presenting some fairly unobstructed shots that I was able to grab on the show field of the 2011 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. For more information about this major Florida event, visit http://www.ameliaconcours.org .

This gallery is my fifth of five on the 2011 concours held on Amelia Island in Florida. I took all the photos here with a handheld Nikon D300 and a Nikkor 18-200mm VR zoom. All have been resized for online viewing. Note that the images and other content here are protected by copyright laws. All rights are reserved. Unauthorized use, copying, printing or direct linking is prohibited.

THE PICTURES HERE CAN ALSO BE VIEWED AS A SELF-ADVANCING SLIDESHOW, BUT MINUS THE TECHNICAL AND OTHER DETAILS. SEE THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER OF THIS WINDOW. HAPPY VIEWING! <<<
