Nice pictures and cars. Maybe its my monitor but a couple of the pics look a little dark to me. If you are using Photoshop, try the shadows/highlight feature and see what you think.

You have excellent taste in cars. The setting sun adds a lot of richness to color to photographs

Beautiful cars and pictures. I touched up (and resized) a couple of them, don't know if they're any better, but I gave it a try.
