This was my favourite shot over the weekend. What a stunning classic car. Thought the b/w sepia suited it to a tee. The best part is unlike many of the people in the cars I photograph, These two are happy and even posing for the camera. Notice the man with the victory sign.


More to come next week.

Oh wow. Missed this one. It's wonderful. Like he's driving through time. Your tonal range is just amazing. Bravo.

Beautiful work here Alex.

This shot is by far the strongest out of the collection; not that the rest are bad, this one just has it all right. Composition, PP and your eye are perfect. Into my favs.

I've tried to acquire this car decades ago, in Spain, from a man who used a nylon stocking as a fan belt. Now, that it's near impossible to find parts, I have to be content with this shot of one. A little dark, perhaps, but nice 'n moody and creamy like my morning coffee. If you need a fender of an Avant, you can have this one:

wow your car series is nothing short of amazing. How do you manage to avoid any other cars?? Do you clean them in PP or do you ask the police to block the entire neighborhood? Would love also to know a bit more on your PP steps. I'm sure with a before/after, we would see quite a bit of work on your raw files. Would also love to see more than 10 pictures :)

this one is one of my favorites. Great tones and the B+W is really dramatic.
