Ahhhh, this is GREAT! This guy is the same magician who made your Zs look so stunning!! Maybe he can make my car look good, too.
Anybody who owns 6 Z cars has to be a friend of ours. Why doesn't he belong to our Club?

I sort of pity professional photographers like Diego. They see the world with much "busier" eyes than the rest of us do. Like a stalking cat which sees and focuses on every movement, every twitch, every odd shape around it as potential game, photographers spend every moment noticing angles, shapes, hues, shadows, contrasts, backgrounds and changing light around them as potential filming spots. They can 'see' the picture before they take it. The results are dramatic, but it must be very distracting and sometimes tiring.

So much easier to just stroll thru life enjoying pretty girls, beautiful carz, and other peoples' photography. :)


You are PARTIALLY right Frank!
When we develop our "photographer's eye", we DO see things differently, but this is not a handicap we cannot turn off to concentrate on other important things... :)
I'm really looking forward to this Saturday and getting on track with you guys!!!!!!!!!

That's exciting! Welcome Diego. I'm sure you'll find this a very enjoyable
day as this is a club that enjoys it's members as much as it's carz.
I was luck enough to get a professional moving shot of my porsche 928GT
on the track at LRP about 8 years ago or so, and have it framed as a memory.
That car was replaced with my current Z .......... long story. Anyway, an
opportunity such as you are offering the club is to be cherished.
Look forward to Zeeing you there. You might find zum of us talk funny.
Jack

Alan.Dempsey ........ After looking at the route for Sat. looks like meeting @
exit 15 would add 20-30 minutes to our 1hr.43 min drive from Tolland. Might
have to rethink our route. Will be back to you later in the week.

Even though I have been to your Fall Outing for 3 or 4 years in a row, I am sure I haven't met everyone yet, so this track meet is going to be very exciting and I look forward to getting some great shots! :D

Some excellent photography, especially the contrast shots! You really have an eye.

The S-30 looks astounding from overhead. If you ever get a chance to shoot your Z from above, it will occupy your whole day.

Do you ever shoot in B&W film? (Does ANYBODY still shoot in film? :( . I miss film).

Still looking to hook up with others for the ride out.
Up here in North Central CT. can meet up most anywhere that makes sense.
