Rumblers Car Show

Went to Brooklyn for the first time on Aug 20th for the Rumblers 11th Annual Custom Kills & Hotrod Thrills show.  It was under the Queens Expressway and it was huge.  Very cool; lots of great cars, vendors and strange people.  Loved it!  The lighting was a challenge with dark under the bridge and full sun outside creating a backlighting situation.  Here is how I handled that:  I shot tight framed shots and tried to shoot along the expressway to minimize the amount of background in the shot.  I also tried using the back lighting, sometimes with a flash fill to get an effect.  Here are a couple of shots:

I also shot a model meet-up at this with pin-up girls!  Fun! 
I'll post something about that a little later.
