906 — Actual Race Car

I found this Carrera 6 a couple of weeks ago at the Ford Design Center. It is not a replica, it actually raced.

If it would be better in another forum, please let me know which one.

Well bobafett, I have this one, although I'm not as thrilled with it. I do have a 3/4 front and 3/4 rear that I may play with and post a little bit in the future. I don't typically like "just" plain pics.

And, LUIS5993, did you want the pic without the copyright because you would like to use it somehow? If you wanted a copy for placing on your wallpaper, you could ask me and I might give you one with the copyright in a more pleasing placement and size.

Bobafett, if you were interested in "any" other pictures, I have just now started a blog (primarily images) linked from my site showing what I find Saturday mornings and elsewhere. www.breckrothage.com/brecksblog.htm.

Yes,
I would like to use it to see how beautiful the car is without seeing your copyright all over it. There are some phnomenal photographers here on 6speed and they all have a nice and discreet way of showing that the pictures are theirs without ruining what they photographed. Do a search.

Thank you, I would very much like to see several of them and how they treat it. Would you be so kind as to point me to some threads or links to these photographer's postings?

Those guys you posted are way better but I like to share pics too

breck - thanks for plastering your name and website all over the pics. It really makes them pop. Are you promoting your own website without being a sponsor?

While you're at, could we just have the 'plain' pics? Without all the crazy (and frankly quite distracting) photoshop lunacy?

Sure you can. All you have to do is take your phone and go snap your pictures. A picture is just information and there are a billion (to the 12th power) pictures you can see.

Alternatively, you can google "car pictures" and have yourself a good old time ... without photoshop.

It is true, there is no accounting for taste -- good or bad.

Optional pictures

Well, maybe my previous response was a bit too sarcastic--maybe not.

Regardless, here are a few of the "just plain pictures out of the camera" versus the care I take to pop them and make them more delightful and powerful (in my opinion). Afterall, the subject of attention is and should be "the car" rather than junk around it. Also, bringing more depth and brilliance to the car is something I strive toward.

Do you like the original pics or my version of what I like to see?

















Now, if you like I am glad. If you don't, then you will want to stay away from Breck's Blog www.breckrothage.com/brecksblog.htm and my website as well.

This is what I do ... for a living.

I think people like your work, they just didn't like the copyright info across the car.

Like you said the focus should be on the car...when you had your copyright across the car that took a lot of the focus off the car.
