...parked on the pavement. What do you expect ? If you can pay for this kind of car, you can afford a parking ticket ;o).

We had hired a cottage in the Ardennes for the week-end and visited the beautiful picturesque town of Bouillon, known by the castle of the leader of the first Crucade, Godefroy de Bouillon.
But it was this car, and the other one I'll post in the workshop, that immediately caught my eye.

I'll add some other shots in the workshop section later... stay tuned ;o).

Hi Frank,
would be wonderful to make a trip in this car - of course in summer and with warm sunshine.
Where will we go to? Italy?
Thanks for the noble car with the beautiful colour, bye

you handled the light/dark oke, Frank, well boys will be boys, but I also can appreciate a 'mean' machine like this, good comp, thanx, M, (*_*)

jawadde
Daar wil ik wel eens een ritje mee doen:)
prachtige pov en kleurne!

C'est une magnifique voiture mais on repassera pour le confort n'est-ce-pas? Juste à regarder les pneux et je devine que cet machine doit coller à la route même à très haute vitesse.

Ta photo montre un bel angle et de belles couleurs de ce spectaculaire bolide. L'autre voiture de ton WS est elle aussi très étonnante, mais la mustang décapotable de mon mari me suffit.

Een wagentje met een lange neus waar
pit in zit! De prijs valt nog mee!
Prachtige foto laag genomen en mooi van kleur

Hi Frank,
What a beauty this car, I would love to try driving one. I like how you've capture it with this excellent lighting and the reflection on this superb blue. Very well done.

Hi Frank,

Now that's what I call a sports car!! Interesting where it has its exhausts placed. Looks like it would make one hell of racket! :))

I would love to have seen Dingo in the drivers seat with a scarf and goggles! lol...

Well done & TFS

Wow! Interesting shot and fantastic car my friend Frank!

I like the POV and the fine colors. Is somewhat overexposed at the right side but the lighting control is very nice.

Well cmposed shot, Frank! The low POV is a good choice, making this machine look even meaner! TFS!

Haha interesting shot here Frank, my Mom drives a roadster so for me personally, this photo is quite a shock. You know I'm so used to the new, day n aged sports cars/roadsters that this one is just, wow! :P Love the colour, very flashy, hard to miss really. Nice background, to quote Lionel Ritchie, "Easy like sunday morning..." haha oh jeez, nice stuff. Hope things are going well...

Biance.

Well seen and captured, Frank. The exposure is very good ,even though the lighting conditions are difficuly. Lovely car, great POV and composition.
