September 2014 photo contest

As I have apparently been chosen to host this months photo contest, I will start by suggesting that photography of Airstreams is not an easy task. So, the theme is to photograph an Airstream, utilizing the reflections to add interest to the photo… this can be interior, exterior, or any image where the reflection is critical for the unit to look its best. Even a studio shot which shows only a very clean aluminum appearance is suitable.

And, if I have not given proper guidelines, someone correct me.

Let's go for it and good luck.

OK here goes. She is not polished but you can still see the reflection of the camp fire and the mountains behind me. We were surrounded by beautiful mountains at Convict Lake Campground, CA.

Msmoto congrats and it's a great topic that will likely produce a very difficult judging for you in four weeks as Batman has it off to a great start.

May not be the winner. But I think it's a cool photo.

Great theme Msmoto, we've seen many reflections from our Airstream over the years. Some captured with camera, many in our minds eye, but always thought provoking!

Ok - I'm embarrassed to say I can't remember who from our New England Unit owned this beautiful trailer or what year it is (I seem to think 1958 but I'm drawing a total blank). What I remember is fellow NEU member Lilli and I taking this picture in the reflection of the trailer :-)

This was from that Glamping rally I've mentioned where we did a grand tour of everyone's trailers - including the 2 ladies who saw the rally advertised as a "bring a friend" rally and they brought themselves in a gorgeous old Shasta one of them just purchased that week and started refinishing! That rally was my fave so far!

Here's the pic:
