American Racing Golden Hour De Luxe

I call this one American Racing Golden Hour De Luxe and I’ll bet U don’t know why. This great looking rod is a classic 53 Chevy I think, don’t believe it’s an Oldsmobile. So because I’m a bit confused about the make and the year I decided rather than give the pix an erroneous moniker, I’d name it for some other stuff! – Ha! ~:0) The Model is – De Luxe. The car rides on American Racing Wheels. The dark sled is set in “The Golden Hour”. Put them all together and U have American Racing Golden Hour De Luxe – what could be better? In the High-resolution image as when someone springs for a nice print, it’s easy to read American Racing on the rear wheel. Additionally, in the same Hi- Rez pix one can read De Luxe as the model on the side trim near the front wheel. Now here’s the tricky bit. The Golden Hour is that time about an hour ’round sundown. Photographers and film- makers have long referred to that time of magical light as the golden hour. So in my humble opinion as the creator of this work of photographic art, this is a sunset photo. Yeh – the sunset can be seen setting in the reflection off this black lead sled cum street rod and the whole image is lit by the warmth of the setting sun – See what U miss when U don’t have one of these fab VivaChas! photographs up on Ur wall in all their Hi-Rez bewdy? And when they’re printed on the metallic paper they reflect the light like U would not believe – bust loose! ~:0) VivaChas!

Stunning! Do you know the band Mumford and Sons? Their leader Marcus Mumford posts stories as TheFryersMuck on their youtube videos in a delightful way such as this. I subscribe to the channel just to read his stories which are *almost* as amusing as yours. =)

I love the way it glows!
