A 1956 Austin A30 to be precise I had one chance to photograph this car as the owner was approaching with his car key.

Can you see me reflected on the back of passenger side wing mirror ? it's a UK car. :o( .. Don't I look dandy, & I just love my 420mm zoom lens. :o)

Have a nice day .. Phil

Such a great and well focused image. Perfection comes to mind. What camera are you using the new zoom on? Wowie Phil.

Thanks so much for the praise Sandi. :o)
I'm still using the same Panasonic FZ50S camera, & several simple editing programmes. But just lately I've developed some novel post editing techniques of my own, needless I'd be daft to give a lecture !!

Big brother's watching you :o) A mistreated dog should try to leave a deposit on their masters best carpet, after all it's important to establish who's boss ... Help I'm being repressed !!

WOW. This is the best car photo I have seen, detail is unreal. Your zoom lens is doing yourself proud.

That's a real classic. It looks so small. You got any Edsels over there? LOL. Very nice Phil.

That must be one short person driving the car. Great photo Phlossie and I think I do see the hint of a person in a reflection. Clarity is superb. A Austin Powers you say.

This is a very good capture of this old car. It is nice to see some people take a real pride in keeping them in almost perfect condition. It looks like it has just come out of the showroom. Well done for spotting this one!

Wow, a fantastic picture Phil. The clarity is stunning and I love the subject. When I was at school my mate Martin's Mum had one of these. I remember she came to collect me from A&E after I'd had a crash in my Ford Anglia!!
