Art & Inspiration Hotrod/Custom Shadows

...a trifecta of things happening here...Shadow, Reflection and the art of Custom...

I thought the reflection of the group standing close is a nice touch...

What is this Custom...

It's Hamber @candyman's missus's Merc...the "Treblmaker"

...This is a pic from the ad placed when it was up for grabs a couple years ago...that has a magical shadow looking a little like vintage flames...to me that's how inspirations can bring on reality many times in Hotrod/Custom...

...a pretty incredible story around this Hotrod...

Story is this was a Hotrodders son's engineering project for School...a tribute to his dad...while not all traditional by Hamb standards he certainly knocked it out of the park in my opinion...

Wonder if either of them are Hambers as they seem to be naturals for what we celebrate here...

I'm in awe really...

Here is the shadow of my 55, in the shadow of the Michigan Train Station.

 

Oh I love them shadows...every where you go the defined lines paint a new silhouette... nice one 55...

 

...a recent pic with two shadows with different twists...the Ole Hotrod shadow and a barn that's a shadow of its former self...
