Re: Dream Cruise Tonight

2007-08-16 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
Ages ago, I briefly had the opportunity to buy a Bugatti Type 57SC  
"Atlantic" Coupe. It was finished in a gorgeous wine-burgundy red color.

(No, I didn't buy it. Although the asking price was within my means,  
the ability to maintain and own such a premium piece of automotive  
history was way out of my territory!!)

Yellow's different.  It's not a national racing colour.  Personally,
I'd prefer my Italian sports cars red, French blue, British Green,
German silver, etc.  But if one's going to be an iconoclast, at least
don't be heretical about it...

;-)

Having mentioned what I did about Bugattis other than blue, I now
recall seeing something on a TV show about a black Bugatti.   I guess
that's okay...

Not red, though!

You can see what appears to be a VW style exhaust system under the tail

That's exactly what I thought, and then I realized that I'd never seen
a Bugatti in anything other that French Blue.  It ~does~ look like the
"inverted horseshoe" grill-frame, doesn't it?

It would be heresy to paint a Bugatti IRR, IMHO.  OTOH, it could be
that the history of this particular car had it raced at some point by
an Italian...

Anyhoo, I also don't see the Alfa Shamrock anywhere on that red body -
wouldn't it normally be right behind the cockpit?

Now I'm getting curious.  I'll check about on the web, too...

cheers,
frank

What's that red Italian (I'm assuming from the colour it's Italian)
thing?  An old Alfa?

Anyway, I love them all.

They seem hypersaturated.  Did you do that, or is that just the way
they came out.  It's very effective.

cheers,
frank

Nicely done.  The Lincoln is my favorite.  The red hat stands out both
for color and sharpness and gives a nice anchor for the eye.

Hi Jack,
Thanks. At very slow shutter speeds (1/4 second here), only the  
center point of the arc remains sharp when you pan. It's an effect,  
and the execution is rather hit and miss. More miss than hit:-).

"Cruising" appears to be rather speedy. ;)
