Shot this one cold November morning for a friend. Its a Gardner Douglas replica, LS2 powered with a pretty rare hard top nailed on too. I had the pleasure of passengering round the Nurburgring in this earlier in the year, that was one of those 'once a lifetime' moments for me.. :grin: Anyway I digress.

I say 'fall' colours for those readers over the pond, we know it's Autumn colours really ;)

It looks pretty good in these & in the gallery, too. I can't say that I'm in lust over some of the framing options, though? ; )

I've always like these without the side exhaust becuase it shows off the fenders much better. I love the details photos.

You cant tease us with the "LS2 swap" and not have any engine bay shots. Pictures look great though, and I really like the interior shot you did on your site.

I think they look really good,but that last one looks like a finger in front of the lens in the lower right corner.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

The engine bay is pretty 'standard Cobra' looking tbh, a big pancake airfilter on top of a single carb with a splash of chrome here and there - and tbh, we didnt even think about opening the bonnet on the day! And instead took the thing out for a drive instead :)

I need to practice further with framing, and foreground interest - which is what I was trying out here.

I like the framing. Otherwise it can get boring seeing the same types of shot every time.

And the correct term is "fall". Autumn is for you fancy people. :lol:

#2 for the win if I was forced to choose. Looked like a great day for photos and even better for a drive. Owning a cobra is right near the top of my bucket list. Very envious of your ride around "The 'Ring".
