The theme at the Goodwood Breakfast Club today was Deutsch Marques and it proved to be a popular event with German cars as far as the eye could see. As we walked along the circuit’s start-finish straight I spotted this Porsche whose badge was in desperate need of some polish. However, the car’s lack of TLC was my gain as it makes a great photo with such a wonderfully grimy texture!

Unfortunately, it's a very hard language for a clapped out Porsche to learn. revenant · 2010-11-07: 05:36

Wonderful textures as you say, but also great angle and focus ..... Ha ha to revenant... cariad · 2010-11-07: 05:43
