Coffee & Cars

Every first Saturday of the month, there is an informal gathering of car hobby enthusiasts Cars & Coffee. Each one will bring their hot rod, roadster, classic, muscle car, exotic, luxury, low rider, rat rod or sports cars to Uptown Park shopping center in Houston. The cars ranged from a 20 horsepower Ford model T all the way to a 900 horsepower pickup truck.

This was of course an excellent opportunity for a fieldtrip with the Photowalk Meetup group. The meeting started early (8am) because after 10am they would make way for customer parking.

It turned out taking photos of shiny cars isn’t as easy as it looks like. Luckily I was able to shoot a number of keepers and I can always return the Cars and Coffee meeting at one of the coming Saturdays.
