great shot,like all your images of the iconic
E
Thanks! It’s a beautiful car, really interesting to drive around the moors. I like the juxtaposition against the graffiti.

Beautiful lines beautifully captured.
Thank you, Kurt. I’ve always loved the E-Type, and finally got chance to drive one for the weekend. Well worth the wait!

What a way to travel.
Did you venture round the Lizard Peninsula in Cornwall ??
Not this time. The weather (October 24 onwards) wasn’t great. We were based at Two Bridges and went from there to Castle Drogo, up towards Liskeard and down to Buckfast Abbey. The lanes around there were pretty scary in the E, so it was nice to hit the A38 a couple of times!

Great shoot!
I like the contrast of this beautiful car to the background.
Thanks Uwe. I knew I needed to get this shot as soon as I saw the graffiti’d buildings – it seems to split opinion though, my wife doesn’t like it at all!
