EH Holden 50th Birthday

2013 is the 50th Birthday of the EH Holden, 1963 – 1965
and the EH Holden car club of WA put on a car show “birthday party” on the South Perth foreshore, it also included the earlier model EJ cars too

one of the most popular Holdens, and I am not saying that because I have one πŸ™‚

50th anniversary of the EH Holden car

It is Kings Parks 50th year of the wildflower festival, it also the 50th anniversary of the EH Holden car
so with the help of the EH club in WA Kings park combined the 2 anniversaries by turning 2 old EHs into…………

flower pots, sigh

(my wife suggested I do it with my EH, she was joking, i think, hope)

I managed to get a photo showing the character of one of the cars without having to many of the flowers, trying to give it the abandoned in the bush look.
I tried to be different from most others that were taking shots with the flowers too
this is the rear of one of the cars

three photos stitched with microsoft ice

I tried to be different from everyone else that were taking shots with the flowers too

Big Al’s Poker Run

Big Al’s Poker Run is the biggest hot rod and custom car gathering in Western Australia.

On the shores of the Swan River near the Burswood hotel, hundreds of hot rods, custom cars, and old cars gather before going on a cruise around Perth, and to see all these cars cost a gold coin donation. The best value for money in Perth.

Maybe this year I will use a different lens to the Pentax 10-17 fish eye, as much as it was fun and enabled me to get so close to the cars that no one could get in between, it doesnt give an accurate representation of the cars. lol

The run takes place on the second Saturday in February, in 2010 it will be the 13th.
For more information look on Big Al’s website
