As I recall, the owner had an all original car. No work done to it at all. The cracked paint was just the way it was. As for the roundel being a certain shape, I don't know enough about Austin Healeys to tell what is correct.
Got a tip for us?

Lovely sky, I really like the dark cranes in the picture too. In my opinion, you could crop it even more with the left crane and the building on the right out of the picture so the cranes in a middle get more attention but that's just me - sorry to be picky!
Well then.... Can I double down? Or should I split them?? LOL!
Even though this is a cheap a$$ Bentley (pfft! as if!), this is a beautiful picture. There is a silky dreamy smooth quality to the tonality of this. That paintwork is flawless! nicely done.

Well, as it happens, I took two photos, and the other is zoomed in further as you suggested. Will maybe show it soon.

Tweaking the theme a bit. AN (Air Force/Navy) fuel fittings on a supercharged '41 Willys.

Eggs.....I don't know why. I was bored and the fridge was open.
Nice lines and focus. Lovely shadows.
Were you shouting to Mrs MacRy at the time that there wasnt any food in the fridge to eat?

Aston Martin... Anything Aston Martin is gorgeous. More!
I like it a lot ! Reminds me of a Cadburys Flake advert.... Fabulous.
Chilli actually. I'd had enough of eggs for some reason...,
I was hiding them from her so she wouldn't pelt me with them.
Wonderful shot Tom! Great job.
Thank you both, really appreciate it. I'm doing more and more portrait shoots plus shot a wedding lately for a friend and everyone liked my pics, unfortunately a bit more than the ones from the official photographer (I didn't shoot the ceremony, just morning preparations and afterwards) so that was nice to hear although it caused a bit of a tension.
Kenoh - I might have seen it but can't remember which one you mean exactly?

It seems to be a "simple" picture. But it has an aura. You "see" inside her, her everyday gesture tells a story. I know it is good as I could have written the short-story just watching it.

Thank you for your comment, as she was wearing a plain, white dress, I wanted to emphasise the simplicity and easiness of the summer I guess with that gesture, I'm still learning with portraits so I'm glad you think that!
