Default Ljubljana,17.november, Mercedes S L R!!!

My friend called me up and said, that he saw a black SLR in the city center.
I wasn's suprised, because I knew, that 4 slr's are coming to Slovenia.
Or is that 2. Not sure.

I kinda felt lucky and said, I'll come arround to see if I'll bump into it.
And since I live only 24km's out of Ljubljana, I was in the city centre 20 minutes after talking to my friend.

Anyway, I took me about a minute to bump into it.
Now that's what I call luck.
But there was one problem. The car was not parked and was going in the opposit direction.
Ofcourse, I imediatley took a few pics, turned arround in a buissy street.
( some people wanted to kill me ) :roll:

I followed him for about 10 minutes, and eventualy he stopped in a small village near ljubljana. He was meeting some friends for dinner.

I started talking to him in german, because he he had german plates, but soon found out he was Slovenian.
He asked me, if I was a journalist or a papparazzo. I said no, and then he said, go ahead take some pics...

The pics are a bit blurry, because my camera starts acting wierd as soon the light is not perfect, so I'll have to catch him during day time some other time.



Enjoy!

Nice hunting Komotar!
Really like the composition of image 10 and 16; very good work!
Pity about the light; I can't wait to see the above shots in more photo friendly light!

The SLR looks much better in black IMO. Really nice what you've done to take some pictures Luckily the owner of the car was a nice person ....

Lovely pics, so nice to see it in a colour other than the usual silver, Black is the best colour for any mean Merc IMO 8) Even though I'm not its biggest fan this SLR looks pretty damn good to me
