Our little town has a Riverfest celebration each year on Father's Day and high school Alumni weekend. So often, it is blustery and rainy...even cold. This year was one of the sunny years, however. The local Lions club now sponsors the event, which includes a "show and shine" car show, a quilt show, a treasure hunt, various booths, and the Rubber Duck Derby (this year more than 900 little ducks were sponsored at $2 apiece for the race down half a mile of Phillips Creek at the edge of town). The day ends with the high school alumni banquet, which generally serves 200-300 returning alumni.
For
Your Sunday Best and
Weekly Top Shot, I've chosen one of the many images I took at the car show. Because the cars are lined up beside each other, photographing the entire car means dealing with distracting backgrounds. So I decided I'd record some details. This is one of my favorites: when I was concentrating on a bright orange coupe, I noticed the reflection of the neighboring Mustang in the "baby moon" hubcap. (My entire album is posted on Facebook:

Oh, I really like this shot. I am not a "car person" and have no photos of cars, but if I saw an orange coupe I'd be all over it!
Love the fact your community pulls out all the stops to celebrate.
Nice car detail too!
As previously mentioned, I too like your header photo.
