Just a couple from my local museum today. For the afficionados the Benz drive gears are from a 1902? replica single cylinder which runs on Hexane , the museum is hand building 50 over the next 12 months and the engine is from a 1923 supercharged straight 6 which raced at Le Mans in 1923-it crashed and was rebuilt and raced again in 1933 ( so the guy at the Museum said).

a little too abstract for me, do you have any full car shots? or less abstract shots?

Not really,the major difficulty at this place is its quite small and crowded both with cars and people so its very difficult to isolate a car, hence I tend to take the more abstract type of shots when I go there. If the cars were outside in a more open setting then yes I would be able to take shots of full cars, but I find the detail interesting and a bit different.
Thanks for your comments
