ChiTown Exotic Car Club hosted a car show at Sonny Acres Farm. It may have been the oddest site that I’ve been to for a car show; and it had been rainy recently, so it was very muddy. Overall, I did see quite a few rare cars, but it was very difficult to capture interesting photos due to the large crowd and the fact that the cars were so tightly packed.

Normally, I reserve my blog for still life or wild animal artistic photos; however, this is the 100,000th photo that I’ve taken with my Nikon digital SLRs.
But there’s another reason that I love this photo: Sally and her husband Gene have almost 20 horses that they own or board; they love horses. Cynthia, my daughter, loves her toy horses; but, other than a few pony rides at the fair, she’s never around horses. Sally enjoyed seeing Cynthia’s fascination with horses turn into a love for them today. I’m certain that both of them will remember today for quite a while.

Now, back to that 100,000th photo:  I’ve had 4 Nikon SLR’s now – D50, D80, D90, & the D7000. They’ve each had their own personalities, and I’ve sold each one to friends who’ve enjoyed using them as well. In fact, my first Nikon, the D50, was sold a second time to another friend.  I love photography; and, like Sally, I love seeing others learn to love photography too.
