Default Jan 05: F430, 250 cabrio, 456, 400i, 997TT test mule...

So, back in the streets we are.

With a nice Z1, a rare and sometimes underrated sighting!


Brown Vette. Kinda like it.


And some F of course, like this nice 250 cabrio


Silver 430


or dead sexy blue 456!!


Simple 4200GT on BBS


And first pic from my trip to the ring back in 2005.. sadly too dark to get decent panning shots with my poor Pro 1 (yep, still some months needed before we'll hit the first regular sightings pics taken with the 350D).. 997TT test mule.. pretty quick beast!

You mean the sort of blurry/brillance thing? I just duplicate the layer, play around with levels and gaussian blur, set it as overlay and it's done.

Very nice!! The two nicest cars for me are the silver F430 (what a colour) and the Maser on those gorgeous BBS wheels!

Funnily enough I saw a blue 456 yesterday too, however I was seated at a cafe while it drove past....no photo like you.

Yeah, but I also meant the cut up effect

LOL about the testmule 8)

me likes the grey 430 most, on the other side the bling-MB is horrible :roll:
I agree with te color for the 456, very nice

Thanks for the update TT

hmm, I don't think I like the rims on the maser not a look, that suits the car imo...

ths silever F car cabrio...hmm, nice one

I love the Z1. I saw 2 this summer and they were both in excellent condition, what a funny looking car ... I saw two red ones and they stood out sooo much...

oh, and the vette got a nice background, that makes the pic really cool,

Thx for the update TT...it's like looking in the past

How cool is that - a 250 PF SII Cabriolet just parked on the road as if it was a ordinary, garden variety 308/328.

And let's not forget that 250 was parked in the same exact parking spot (public) as the yellow Miura weeks earler:

same owner obviously, and other ppl saw more cool cars there. I think I even got a Dino later one right there.

I just select a rectangle smaller than the pic, enter quick mask mode (Q), then filter > brush strokes > Sprayed strokes. Q again and then I take the resulting cut up image and paste it in the preset gif I use as a base for my signature

You need to make friends with him mate - he might give you a ride in the Miura

Yeh, would be great indeed! Sadly now that I live near Lugano (pics taken in Geneva), this is pretty much impossible and need to find myself some new Miura owners around here
