You've tickled the interest of a fellow car enthusiast. The car looks to be a very early Jaguar, perhaps an SS Jaguar saloon. This article suggests this could be a pre-leaper 'cat shot off a fence'! http://www.jec.org.uk/latest-news/1369/story behind the jaguar leaper.htmlWell, it is a Jaguar but I've never seen one with a hood ornament like this. Might have to do some research as to when the "Leaper" came about. From what I've been able to find, the "Leaper" was introduced in 1937. Unfortunately I did not note the year/model. Lots of members from "across the pond", perhaps they might be able to shed some light on this fellow. Cheers
I imagine it must be very rare so well spotted and top marks for not getting a reflection of yourself in the chrome-work!
This is scary ... I was in Phoenix this week.
Got a new dog a couple of weeks ago. His lips aren't actually that droopy, he's just chewing on something. Always. Chewing on something...
Anyway, think yourselves lucky we're not 'friends' on Facebook, it's a regular puppy photo spam-a-thon..

They look it to me!
Lovely early spring picture.
The second subject from yesterday's double-feature.
Shotgun edit.
Background was white.
Make-up traces are added in PS for the fun of it. There was no MUA during the shoot.
Still a lot to be done on both subjects. Blemishes, zits, overexposed areas due to shininess etc etc
Keep forgetting to ask, are these colours coming from the Leica lens, or are you using a camera setting? There's definitely something I love about the palette anywaySpring has sprung in my neck of the woods.

Definitely coming from the lens. I actually cooled it down slightly in Lightroom as it was a little warm straight out of camera. Other than that and a slight vignette it's as shot. The Elmar has a lovely tone to it.
Cheers fella. I PP as little as possible. The secret is good light. It was the golden hour with the sun shining through the trees in little pools.

Like the others have said, that's a beautiful picture and the colours are gorgeous. I very much like the shallow dof, perfect!
Lovely, she's a sweetie!
What is it?

Rough neighbourhood?
I just tried to find more information about this statue but couldn't. A web search didn't help. These statues are in a park close to where I live.
