I was thinking about what I was missing while I was at work. Will be watching for the pics. I'm still planning on making it to the show tomorrow. I hope they do the tour again next year.

I was just peeking at the pics I took. The place had low general lighting with brighter lighting in places to make a very nice atmosphere. I took most of my pics without a flash and they came out pretty good. I wish I could post them at full resolution. They lose a lot when you shrink them. The resized pics don't do justice to the experience.

I'm sure someone will be posting plenty of pics soon. I'll try to do a few later. I'm heading back to Detroit right now.

Here's a couple of unique Firebirds.

Bob, thanks for putting this on. My boys and I were late but still had a blast. Good to see everyone even if I didn't talk to many.

I kind of messed up my pictures at the autorama too. I had the meter set on spot for some pictures I was taking of the truck at home instead of overall reading. Now I get to edit 109 pictures to adjust color, contrast and brightness. It will be a few days before I'm done and can post a link to the album.
