Very nice. Good dynamic composition and effective processing. It would make a wonderful large print on metallic paper. I can see it hanging an a Ferrari dealership!
Thanks, guys.
Thought this one worked well.
I wanted to wait for some "reviews" before posing a question: Does the image need clockwise rotation to make the bottom triangle parallel to the frame?
Now I think I have the answer: Who cares?
Sorry, dont know the model name/number.
Taken at the Tutti Italiano Auto Show last weekend.

Doug,
Not sure I have any great shots, but I will see if any of the Alfa images are worth posting. And I might use your knowledge to ID the model and year.
Must have been at least 25 Alfas around.

I'd leave the orientation just as is - ain't broke, don't fix it

All with pans underneath to catch the oil!
It was a fun car to drive, but not the best to own. We hope to go to Tuscany next Spring. I'm tempted to pay the extra and instead of renting a Fix It Again Tony, renting an Alfa.
I'm having lots more fun with my mid life car, a 2002 Miata. Sadie has been very reliable. The nice thing about the Miata is you think you're tearing down the road and you're only doing 60. That helps keep me out of trouble.
On older Ferraris, they made the valve guides of very soft metal. Folks complained when they wore out fast. Ferrari's answer is that they expected their engines to be rebuilt every 20,000 miles, so it was no problem.
Also, Rolls Royce, at least in the 1920's, expected the owners of their cars to send them back to the factory at least every five years to be completely refurbished.
