Thanks guys. This was definitely a model show. There were some A-list ones that didn't show up though. This is the second year of the show and the peeps who went last year said there were more people in attendance this year. From my understanding (which we all know could be wrong), they only selected a limited amount of cars for a reason which is not too clear withe me so I won't speculate.

As far as a "feel" for the show, I wish it was darker. Myself and a few other more experienced shooters had difficulties with the brighter than usual indoor lighting. The big question for me was....use a flash? Or no? Shots either came out too bright or too much shadows on the models. Overall, if they can keep a buzz about this show into next year, I think they will do well if they decide to put the show on tour in the years to come.
