Pic Of The Week: Ferrari 250 GTO

Mmmmm.... (that's all we have to say on the matter)

Today's POTW has taken a rather left-field route to the homepage. It was actually reported as being 'offensive' to the PH forum moderators by PHer Olberj.

But far from taking umbrage to the photo, taken somewhere in deepest France by PHer Valkarth, Mr Olberj felt that the photo (and quite probably the car) is 'offensively good'.

He's right, too. And we really don't need anything more than the flimsiest of excuses to run a pic of a Ferrari 250 GTO, surely...

Normal (1280x1024)
WideScreen (1440x900)
SuperSize (2048x1536)

You can have a look at more of Mr Valkarth's pics at his website: www.voiture-valk.fr

I third that. Disgusting overuse of HDR, bystanders, reflections,...

Hey, it's an amazing looking car and the photo's still "ok" because the car saved it, but I wouldn't put an "ok" photo of Cameron Diaz on my desktop either.
Great car, bad picture.
