Reflecting on Classic Cars

Reflecting on Classic Cars ThumbI think this is a 1939 Chevrolet Coupe police car through the reflection in the window of a 1957 Chevrolet Deluxe Sedan police car. These cars were on display by the police at the 2017 Toronto Indy. The yellow colour of the 57 was the colour of all Metropolitan Toronto Police cars into the 70s. It is also the hidden meaning behind the lyrics of the Joni Mitchel song “Big Yellow Taxi”. Police car, not a taxi.

After focusing and setting my aperture (don’t remember what it was, but I usually shoot at 1/125 on sunny days) I waited some time for interesting people to come into the shot.

A tough choice for mounting, so this is the best I could get under the circumstances.
