I saw this lovely car at the Medford Cruise a few years ago. This yearly classic car show is a full week of oldies but goodies to drool at! Definitely a lot of fun if you have any interest in beautifully restored automobiles.

This is another picture I took at one of the Medford Cruise week's "Show 'n' Shine" exhibitions. So many awesome cars, at some point my eyes start spinning around in my head from so many amazing vehicles!

Today is the end of the 2016 Medford Cruise. It's a shame that Steve and I missed this year's events, but we were tied up the weekend before and then we left for our motorcycle vacation on Thursday, and won't be home until tomorrow. There will be other shows though, so we're not too disappointed. And the fact of the matter is I have dozens upon dozens of pictures still to process from when we went in 2013! VIVA LA MEDFORD CRUISE!!! :D

Medford Cruise week is upon us! For a whole week, Medford will be crawling with classics! This is a shallow dof shot of the front of a snazzy Corvette that I took a few years ago! In the words of Ferris Bueller: "They are so choice. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up." (LOL I checked to make sure I got the quote right, and I did! What a nerd I am!) :D

This is another picture I took at one of the Medford Cruise week's "Show 'n' Shine" exhibitions. So many awesome cars, at some point my eyes start spinning around in my head from so many amazing vehicles! This year's Medford Cruise is coming up and I can't wait! :D (who's that in the reflection?! :D)

Here's another beautiful old car from our yearly Medford Cruise Show 'n' Shine. I'm sure someone knows what kind of car this is, and I'd be very happy to identify it!

Oh, I do love classic cars! They so often take my breath away, what fun to look at them! One of the cool things about where we live is the week-long classic car extravaganza that happens every June. The Medford Cruise Event has a different car show every day, and on the last day there is a many-hour, circuitous parade accompanied by oldies music to enjoy! This lovely emblem was on a 1964 pearly white Impala. What STYLE!! A little more about this emblem: The fact is that I do not love all classic cars, and I think the shape of Impalas is boxy and ugly--"WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!!!" In fact, to me, when I see that emblem, I cannot believe they put something so beautifully designed onto such a horrendous car! See for yourself: 1964 Chevy Impala ...I know that the lines of this car appeals to many, but I hate it! So the only thing I photographed was THE EMBLEM! :D

I just love the ornate back ends of classic cars. Such interesting swooshes and details. I have always appreciated old cars, and enjoy staring at them whenever I get the chance. Here in Medford, Oregon, there is a week-long expo in June to showcase these beauties. Different shows every day culminating in a slow cruise parade that lasts for hours on the last day. I got this shot a few years back when Steve and I visited one of the daily "Show 'n' Shine" exhibitions. What a day!! All this time I've been sitting on these pictures, and finally I can share some! During this year, I will be rolling out another dozen if I can, I got so many cool images!

Every year in June, our local city hosts a week-long classic car extravaganza called the Medford Cruise. Hundreds of gorgeous cars from around the western U.S. are showcased during the week which culminates in the Cruise, a mile-long circuitous parade route where drivers have the chance to show off their beautiful cars in motion for a couple of hours. Steve and I went to one of the daily "Show 'n' Shine's", and spent a couple of hours drooling at the parked cars and taking pictures. So many gorgeous details!!! I am not sure what model car this is, but my friend Andy thought it might be a Studebaker? If you know, I'd love to hear from you!

At the Medford Cruise classic car show, I got the chance to see some of my favorite old cars, including the ever so hot and sexy Corvette Stingray...YOWZA!! I had fun taking my picture in the reflection of this beautiful car's glossy paint job!

I saw this beautiful car at the Medford Cruise Show 'n' Shine and had a lot of fun taking abstract detail shots!

1 more view above in the notes! :) This is one of the cars I saw at the classic car show in Medford a couple of weeks ago. I started playing around with the background, which was originally very busy, and loved the result when I changed it to black!

Here's another picture I took at the Medford Cruise "Show 'n' Shine", isn't Betty Boop adorable?! :)

For anyone that loves classic cars, the Medford Cruise and car shows held yearly in June are not to be missed! They have a lot of neat events, and today Steve and I went to the 72 and older car show. We spent several hours walking around and taking pictures and I got some practice with our 50mm lens! I didn't want to show a standard car picture, so I am sharing an abstract of a gorgeous Chevrolet that was sitting in the shade with reflected light glowing all over it. What a beauty! What a day! I'd like to share more pictures but we got home late and I'm about to turn into a pumpkin! Alexandra Elizabeth Paul (born July 29, 1963) is an American actress. She is best known for her role as Lt.
