topoxforddoc Posted May 28, 2008 Share #1 Posted May 28, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) The Bugatti type 57 was surely one of the most beautiful cars ever made. This isn't the 57SC Atalante, which is really gorgeous. But this 57C ain't bad. Charlie Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted May 29, 2008 Share #2 Posted May 29, 2008 Charlie - I agree completely, and you've done it justice. Any more views? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMast Posted May 30, 2008 Share #4 Posted May 30, 2008 Great shots of a great car. Bugatti is my favourite make of older vehicle, they all had style especially when Jean Bugatti designed the bodies. It was an era when coachbuilders were to the fore. I went to the Schlumph Collection in Mulhouse,France, shortly after it was opened to the public under state ownership following the financial collapse of the Schlumph Brothers textile business. To walk into those buildings and see all those Bugattis literally took my breath away and I will never forget it. Do you have some more pics to post?

Guest suilvenman Posted May 30, 2008 Share #6 Posted May 30, 2008 This car must surely qualify as a work of art. An excellent set of beautifully composed photos, Charlie, and B&W fits the subject perfectly. Cheers, Ken. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
topoxforddoc Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share #7 Posted May 30, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Ken, Like Ian, I'm a great fan of Bugattis. Fortunately for me the Bugatti Owners Club have their home only 6 miles from my house at Prescott Hill. Hence I get to see them regularly, not just as static displays, but raced up the hill too. Here's one for you from last weekend. Charlie Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest suilvenman Posted May 30, 2008 Share #8 Posted May 30, 2008 Thanks Charlie, Another superb example of your panning technique. Cheers, Ken. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
