Is there anyone on here in the printing industry?

I started a similar thread on a BMW 8-Series forum about 12 years ago and the photos were of such high quality, we ended up getting the forum members to vote on the best 13 pics and we produced a calender for the following year.

Do the members here feel this is something we could do? OBVIOUSLY we need the owners permissions to reproduce their work, but if we could get it off the ground, would anyone be interested in a 2020 Aston Martin Pistonheads Forum calender? Desk calender or wall calender?

8Tech. (Stands for BMW 8-Series Technician) if you were unaware!

Cheers.

PS: Mr Tremlini's contribution has just got to be a winter months pic!!!
No problem for me, happy to contribute if the idea grows legs!

No need for that. It was only a bit of gentle joking. smile

Great thread and kinda hard to compete when you throw that image out there first up!

I`ll put this one in the mix, I have a few favourites but I like this because the environment is quite unique.

The thing that keeps bringing me back to this photo is the paint, or rather the seemingly lack of it. It looks like highly polished alloy, perhaps like a P-51 all gleaming in the sun. I'm sure the snow field has something to do with that. Any way, love that look. Well done!

Until February this year I owned a black 2007 V8 Roadster 4.3. Probably the slowest and least capable Vantage but I really loved it and miss it.

Your pictures are bringing back lots of memories.

Thank you

Possibly there is a mix up, but I have a feeling that you might not be on the Aston Martin calendar short list.
