PICs - Ford Model A Museum - Final
I was posting these photos from the Ford Model A Museum leading up to Ford Model A Day at the Gilmore Car Museum-Saturday 9/20. A entire show devoted to the Ford Model A. I didn't have the opportunity to attend last years show, but was told by a friend that it was a great time. Can't wait to se for myself this year. Thanks for looking.

John, I have probably an uninformed (dumb) question.
Did you take these pics at the Ford Museum? And would you be "jcarnutz"?
The pics inside always seem to have very good light to show some nice detail.
I am struggling to make better low light shots.
Thanks

Ok. Yes I am JCarnutz on Flickr and several other places. As far as I know...
I am the only one. These Model A photos were taken at the Model A Museum on the campus of the Gilmore Car Museum. The Henry Ford Museum is a little more challenging. Inside most of the Museum buildings I usually use a flash, but not always. My camera is set on auto. So it decides. Sometimes it is necessary to adjust the lighting on the photos when I process them, but not usually. My camera does a pretty decent job of capturing the light it needs.

Thanks John
I used the auto setting mostly until the last two trips.
I went to the 'no flash' setting that gave me very good pics.
Thanks for the info
