Have quite a few old toy cars and today I wanted photograph my red ones. Had tons of fun with these as a kid. The red ones were always the fastest in my imagination! :)
Love it! I have a similar collection - looks like yours are the good old heavy, real metal cars. They're so much better (and deadlier) than the ones you can buy today. :)
@sarahsthreads - The first one on the left is pretty much all plastic but the other four do have metal pieces. They hold up exceptionally well and happily I was old enough to know not to throw them at my little sister. Lol.
@grammyn - Thank you Katy! These cars bring me all kinds of nostalgia. I can still remember all the racing sounds I made when I played with them. Vroom vroom! :)
Believe it or not, I used to have a massive matchbox car collection! Sadly, I gave them all away. Wish I'd known how much fun they would have been to photograph for 365- I'd have hung on to them! Fun shot!
@grammyn - Haha, happy to provide some laughs! It sure is! Amazing the simple things that make childhood a joy.
@olivetreeann - Thanks Ann! Matchbox cars are awesome! Too bad you gave them away. I was so close to getting rid of these but once I started this project I had a brand new use for them. They're fun to photograph but judging by your photos you sure know how to find plenty of fun subjects to shoot!
@francoise - I've heard! I'm glad I installed some good alarm systems on these! Haha!
@cruiser - Thanks Chris! I will have to compare the speed with my other colored cars one day.
