It's not every day you can win cash with your collectible automobile. But my faithful Internet morning read, the New York Times, is actually offering $5000 for the best photo of a collectible car. Note: I didn't say "classic" as that would eliminate 99% of all collector cars, even though I use the word colloquially in this site. It looks as though the Times is eager to populate its "Share and View" photo gallery and for that, I guess, five grand is chump change. After all, they get the images without paying photography fees. I've worked with professional car photographers whose daily rate exceeded $5000 by a considerable margin. But hey… collecting is a hobby, and if you win you'll be interviewed by a Times journalist for an exclusive interview to be published in the newspaper. So click away on your digital, folks, and remember, the best shots are taken at sunrise and sunset. Submission deadline is October 25, 2007.
