Reflections on--Break for The Grapevine Italian Autofest

2011.09.10

Alfa Romeo. I think a '67. Next time I'll remember to take a photo of the info sheet.

Another Alfa.

And another one. I'd never seen this model before.

Alfa Spyder.

Ferrari. I really had to play with this one to even make it halfway presentable. Lots of light through the tree.

Another Ferrari. I think this one was from the '60's.

Lamborgini Diablo. Never liked a white car till I saw this monster.

Another Lamborgini. This one was pretty rare. I think that the owner said there were only six of these made.

Another Lamborgini Diablo. Played with the background to get rid of some of the junk back there.

I love this green Lamborgini. Who am I kidding, I loved them all.

Lamborgini Countach. License plate said 185 MPH. I believe it. Funny part was he couldn't get on the display field. He's in the Italian parking lot.

Same car as above but I just had to play with this one. A little color enhancement, a little HDR treatment, and a motion blur on the background.

It looks a little plain sitting there all by itself. Makes you just want to cllimb in and drive away. Yellow is OK with me.

Another Lamborgini with a different treatment. If the world was all in black and white, Lamborginis would still be in color.

My reason for going to the show. I had one of these one time. Gave it up 40 years ago to keep an ex from getting it. Always hoped to find it and buy it back. Not this time though

I've tried to make it to this Autofest for several years now and couldn't because of work. Finally made it. I can't imagine how many millions of dollars in Italian Automobiles I saw today but it was quite a few. Some very rare. I fell in love so many times today I lost count.
