Abstract Automotive Art

While photographing cars one of my favorite things to do is look for perfect detail.  Almost every car has some perfect line, shape, or detail that can be beautiful by it self. While classic cars tend to have much more interesting lines then modern cars, modern cars also have the opportunity for that perfect abstraction.  Not only do i find the more abstract photos beautiful i also love nicely done emblem photos. Most of this comes from when i was growing up and starting to learn about photography i used to stop by the local dealer (Williams Auto World) at least once a week, i was also lucky enough to have parents that would drive me to the Ferrari Dealership (Cauley Ferrari) once a month or so.  Both dealers were always nice and let me photograph their cars, I don’t know if it was because i was youngish that they were nice or i like to think that they saw the passion i had for automobiles.

While dealers are not a great place to go for photos in general they do force you to look for those details, those abstractions the metal forms.  Below are some of my favorite details along with the location they were taken at.

As with almost all of the photo’s on my site, the photo of the day are available for print through Smugmug services.
