Thank you for nominating your vehicle in the 2012
             Keeneland Concours d’Elegance. Outlined below are
             several factors taken into consideration before accepting               any vehicle for the Concours:

            • Significant vehicles for each class must be in original
             condition or faithfully restored to original condition.

            • Each year special recognition is given to the Featured
            Marque Class. The 2012 featured marque is Packard.

            • You may enter more than one vehicle; however, we

            allow only one vehicle per class per entrant.

            • Vehicles will be judged based on the correctness of

           their  period, presentation and cleanliness.

            • Exceptional replicas may be eligible for the non-judged
             display class.

             Photos of nominated vehicle
             In order to be considered for the Keeneland Concours
             d’Elegance, we require four photos of each nominated
             vehicle: 1) a photo taken from the front corner, 2) a photo
             taken from the rear corner, 3) a photo taken under the
             hood showing the engine compartment, and 4) a shot of
             the instrument panel and interior. (See Figure 1.)

             The photos must be high resolution (1200 x 900 pixels)
             and clearly show the current condition of the car. If digital
             photos are not available, high resolution scans of prints
             may be used. Photo scanning can be obtained at many
             drug stores or discount retail stores.

             The best overall photo of your car will be published in
             the 2012 Keeneland Concours d’Elegance program
             book. 

            It should be of exceptional quality and composition. (See
             Figure 2).

             Photo Tip: A simple uncluttered background is best and
            the photo should be taken outside under soft lighting
            conditions, i.e. early morning, late in the day or under                  cloudy conditions.
            Always avoid harsh sunlight.
