I hate those Astra CC things, but that black one challenges all my preconceptions!

excellent pics Bruce! This:  makes me really miss my old Toledo V5, not a massively common sight these days, modified ones are even rarer! Any more pics/spec of it, I'd be surprised if it wasn't on air as the engines (well the V5) sits really low and is prone to cracking sumps at normal height!! |

Great shots Bruce, you've got some talent with that camera. Some very tasteful cars there.

I saw that black mx5 at japfest and fell in love..... So simple yet so tough!!
Interesting use of landrover rims too!! What PCD are they then??

Thanks for the comments guys & gals.
Sumpcraker, I was hoping you were going to be there...I'd been looking forward to meeting you and having a look over the 944. Maybe another time heh?
KingDom, my 50mm packed up while trying to capture some of the shots I really wanted (typical!) so I just dug out the fisheye to try and get things from a perspective I wouldn't normally use (i.e. I very rarely tend to use the fisheye because they can get a bit OTT if used too much)
It's a Canon EF 15mm f2.8 - it's not as fast or as quiet as the 16-35mm f2.8L II lens or 24-105 f4.0L lens I usually use for car related shots, but it certainly captures some crisp images and despite the distortion (doesn't everyone buy one of these lenses for the distortion) the sharpness at the extreme edges is still pretty good. It's a lens I really ought to start using more perhaps.

wish we had some meets like this in essex ! Don't you have a car? Or someone who can give you a lift? Essex is only 90 miles from this meet. I travelled 140 miles to get to it. Maybe you should think of looking a bit further afield OR arrange something yourself if you're not being satisfied with what is happening on your doorstep and only on your doorstep. In fact, talking of Essex, 2 years in a row I've done the 360 mile round trip there for a meet. You only get back what you're willing to put in. |
