 Shot at the Classic Car Show in my home town. This little beauty has 600HP under the hood (at least that's what the owner told me) and can leave a trail of smoke for miles. Who knew? Most likely not DPC friendly but I like the shot.

Sweet car! What's particularly cool is the one headlight looks like it has an eye in it, and that eye is slyly watching you.

Nice shot, I'd quite like a different angle though, to show more of the vibrant body of the car.

Needs a bit less backgriund clutter and yet more depth of field for the car.
