[Leica] New Album - take a look

[pdzwig at summaventures.com (Peter Dzwig)]

I took a number of shots of various wonderful examples of motor engineering 
from 
the 1930s - 1950s at the Goodwood Revival, which I have put up as a new 
album.

I take these because of the engineering,and the atmosphere. I hope that you 
like 
the, even if cars aren't to your taste. These are more to do with the 
simplicity 
of the engineering. they aren't "car pics".

Take a look, I hope you enjoy them.

The World Landspeed Record car "Babs" crashed at Pendine Sands in Wales in 
the 
late 20s killing its driver Parry Thomas on his third attempt at the LSR 
after 
chain drive failure caused the car to crash. He had previously reached 
172.331 
mph. Babs was burried in the sand and was only resurrected and rebuilt a few 
years ago.

Maserati A6 GCM. This is possibly my favourite out of this group. I like the 
smoothness and overall quality of rendition of the blacks:

and finally, this was taken at the Festival of Speed earlier in the summer, 
but 
remains a favourite:
