I vote #5, as it brings the car into focus but leaves the background alone. Sharp '72 either way.

I like the 3rd pic where the green paint is brought out.

But they are all nice and there are no bad ones!

I agree with Jeff. #4 makes the car "pop" more than any of the others.

#3 shows the car color and looks to be a sunrise moment.

Thanks for the feedback folks! The cars are picked!!!!.....12 cars one back up picture in case something happens at the printers, I want to say there might be some hard feelings but I hope not , I have very good friends that I have known for years not getting there cars in the calendar,picking the cars for this is one of the hardest things I do,There can be no favorites or anything like that,We got the field of cars down to a resonable amount and gave each car a number and randomly drew the top 13 cars.......The crop of cars this year has been better than ever and my hats off to you submitters of Oldsmobile pictures! OVER 500 PICTURES SUBMITTED! I will post up the pictures soon,Need to take a day off from editing pictures and making the Honorable mention page were i had to hand edit over 100's pictures.......

Well I'm sure we will anxiously await to see the pics, lol!

Thanks again for doing this for us, BigJerr! I think it's an awesome thing you do. I sure wouldn't want to be the one choosing the cars, lol. I couldn't do it. They're all beautiful!!!!!
