Bfg 42 Report post Posted November 7 "sorry for my grammar and orthography; I´m not native english speaking" your photos certainly make up for any minor shortcoming in your English. Truly beautiful photographs Marco. Love the colour, love the car, and love the scenery - Thank You. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z320 87 Report post Posted November 10 (edited) Hi, today out for a 100 miles drive to "Hohenstadt" and back to visit their craftswork market. Sunny but cold day after the first night with temperature below 0°C, due to the cloutless sky this night. The trees nearly lost all their leaves from the frost, anyway nice to see with the warm light. That's "Hohenstadt" with its church and Palace, the young countness / count of Adelsmannsfelden live here and try to renovate the families palace, but this is like a "barrel without base". Met some friends there by accident. Nice view on our way back, with a short brake for two cappuccini and a cake at a classic car center. Very nice day at this autumn, the car worked well. Ciao, Marco Edited November 11 by Z320 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SeanF 98 Report post Posted November 11 Very Nice Marco. That beats my 40 miles and a quick stop in a car park to take a picture. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You're rising to my 'challenge' well indeed, the standards have been set very high indeed. But might I ask of these particular photos ..what's with the splayed front wheels.? I'm not smart enough to suggest anything - but I'd simply not noticed the apparent phenomenon before, if anything I generally see the opposite (..perhaps unless a brief answer - to avoid thread drift, it might be a separate topic). Similarly Sean, super photo of a lovely car. It's not very often I see a car park shot which is so attractive. Perhaps because that hue of red together with the light cream (beige ?) coloured interior is particularly fetching. Thank you both for sharing. Pete. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH 400 Report post Posted November 11 Popped over to Stokenchurch to see the 101 silhouette soldiers and the poppies. Didn't take a photo as I was driving and the sun was against me. You only really see the art work when almost upon it driving East - just before the cutting. Very clever artistic work. Roger 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z320 87 Report post Posted November 11 Hi Pete, indeed the wheels look splayed but they are not. Just checked it with a level at the garage and as I remember it is only a minimum negativ, not worth to mention. My wife has some more photos on her camera, I just have to ask he to load them on the computer. Ciao, Marco 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I just managed to find a parking place positioned perfectly for the low afternoon sunshine. The colour is carmine red and the interior is Light Stone Beige from John Skinner 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
