Ivan,

nicely done, the shot has a plastic coated feel to it which works well in my opinion.

No Vintage Car show condition !

Poor thing was neglected, but when I took some shots of it( Bus Terminus at Valletta area), I was approached by a person who knew the owner.
Told this chap that it's a beautiful car and should be taken care of.....
..never seen it since. I'd like to think it's been restored to it's former glory.

Rolo,

Was just kidding with the 'mad' face......and you know that, my Amico.
For those who don't know it...Rolo is like a brother and a Great Friend to me. He's always there to help and I thank him.

Ivan, this is some chariot. Very powerful image. It would make a great Batmobile.

Ivan,

keep coming back to this magnificent catch.

It leaps off the screen. Excellent production.

The low angle really emphasises the already impressive presence of the car. I like the way the background light moulds itself around the subject.

Great photo Ivan.

Cheers, Ken.

Absolutely, it makes the picture. Also noteworthy car - either a 220S or SE. My father had one, but with the north american double headlights - nowhere near as elegant.
