Smile Re: Light Painting Photography Instructions - C10

Back in 1966 I had a 63 Chevrolet Impala and was going to get it painted. I loved the new colour that Chrysler came out with that year called Red Maple. I said to the body guy and showed him a picture of the colour, I want this colour. He said he can get it close but not exactly the same unless I want to drive around with lights hanging all over the car. The picture was taken inside with all the the lights at certain angles to bring out the best look. I painted the car that colour and was happy with the way it turned out as it changed colour from day to night and even under the street lights there was a different glow. Since then lighting has meant something to me when looking at different paint jobs so far as to have test sheets done so I can view them under different lights and very important out in the daylight not inside an office or body shop. Be fussy it's fun and drives the body guys crazy. Have a good one eh!
