don't just stand there

so often people just wander through a shot, completely oblivious, like the lady looking in the window. fine. but that dude in the doorway saw me shooting this car, and still came out of the restaurant several times and just stood there looking around.

congrats, i didn't rub you out, and now you're infamous. not richard infamous; just a minor irritation.

no doubt he knew that this car was a centerpiece for the show. it was depicted on the show's t-shirt this year. thus aside from being spectacular, was going to draw attention to the location.

perhaps the dude works there, so he couldn't very well go out and check out the cars, and was stuck seeing the show which was so close, yet so far.

a rose by any other name

according to my brief “research” on the internet, “the 1954 chevrolet corvette nomad was a concept car built by GM and introduced at the 1954 GM motorama in NYC. the nomad was decidedly a sporty wagon way ahead of its time.” probably should have just taken a close up shot of the descriptive flyers in the window for the history of this baby.

i'm left to wonder why anyone would want to make a corvette into a wagon. bet some dad didn't want to haul the family around in some big ass family wagon, and thought it would be a good idea. i guess it would have been cool enough, but i don't think it really caught on...i've never seen another one like it til this.
