He was headed to the Quail. I didn't see it but I heard about it. You guys should go next year. It is like a straight teenage boy going to the Playboy mansion.

Great pics-thanks for sharing. Just between us, I would have needed the brown rubber undies to drive that in heavy road traffic. It would have redefined fear.

Examine the pic carefully.

That BMW is actually not that close.

Optical illusion.

Otherwise it appears the GT1 is up on the SUV's rear in the same pic.

Judging from the shadows the BMW looks awful close, and I'm not talking about the foreground design.

Oh well, beautiful pics. Wish I could have seen it in person.

One of the signature effects of telephoto lenses is 'compression' - the ability to make the background appear much closer to the subject.
