The water on pic 4 makes the car look stationary... but the road is "moving" - so which was it..?

Either way, great effect...

Twas moving indeed! Im too crap at photoshop to make a road look moving... I like the rain, although its no fun setting the shot up at 2 in the morning (in the rain) when you have been awake for 24 hours.

Excellent shots (as always), especially like the first one. Haven't reqad the article yet, I guess there are very few Nobles in Chicago, what was the reaction like to it?

First noble in america I think...the yanks thought it came from space. They were more confused than anything else i think. They were however very excited by the Z06. We shot this in october and the car didnt exist then, and with the vette being a bit of an american icon they went balistic when they saw one on the road. They were even more suprised that it was a pair of english chaps in their twenties who had the cars!

Stunning shots.

I really want to like the first one, but the buildings not being vertical distract me too much.

What's it look like when the buildings are straight?

Top work though.

2nd one is my fave, did they use that in the mag?

they used the first 3 ones. 2 in the feature on and one on the intro page. They used a red version of the top one though (there are a few variations of it)

Great shots! 2 & 4 for me

[V6GTO]

Number 1 is just superb!

[cvp]

Like number 1 very much. The purple colouring gives it a really cool effect, a bit Bladrunner ish IYKWIM. Maybe I'm just reading too much into it

cheers chaps. Here are another two of my favourites:

Great shots.

Where was the camera mounted for the last one? Been meaning to try out my suction mount for some external shots for a while but I still don't have enough confidence in it. Do you use some kind of safety rope in case the mount fails or do you just cross your fingers?
