Why people take several picts of one particular car

I think that my reasoning behind takin lots of pictures is that you might end up with one good picture. I find that sometimes, even with a stationary object, if I have 2 or 3 from one angle, sometimes only one of them turns out to be "perfect". Also, as was previously said, I don't get an oppurtunity to see the cars as often as I would like. I think that I came back from the Detroit auto show with somewhere around 500 pictures. Were all of them good? NO. Were all of them of a unique car? NO. Do I have a good picture of almost every car that was there? YUP. I personally take several pictures of each car because I like to change my background a lot, also, when I say " I went to fill in auto show here this weekend" people want to see what pictures. Just my two cents.

On some cars I take a fair few shots. I don't presuppose what others will like and so post the various angles I shoot. As others have said, the design details of these cars are every bit as interesting as the overall car.

I'm one of those idiots that snaps away like that...

http://www.pbase.com/threefourfive/2004_abfm for samples where two cars:
1963 Jaguar XK-E lightweight fixed-head coupe
1957 4200cc. Aston Martin #DBR2/2
consume almost the entire second half of an album...

I usually take many pictures of a car that i like (enzo, saleen....). they are a way for me to revisit that moment in time. they are like an extension of my memorie. and a way to praise myself saying that i saw that car. and since we can't take 3-D models we want to have as many angles as we can.
