What a great set! You've presented us with a range images that are quite differently stylistically but that are all effective with their own merits. Really difficult to pick a favorite(s), so i'm not going to try.

An excellent challenge. I love your 'Orange' - a stunning image.

Plea answered! I don't tend to take shots that fit comfortably within the 'technology' brief, but recalled that I had several aviation images that might fit.

Great set, and no. 5 is a really classy image!

A good set - I particularly like Nos. 1, 5, 9, 10 & 11.

I also like the idea and think that you have the makings of an interesting panel with these.

A few shots from a track day that I've just got back from - hopefully you find the cars interesting. I've included a shot of a wonderful Tromp L'oeil that the circuit owners have put in the car park.

1) Ford GT 40 (replica)

2) AC Cobra (replica)

3) AC Cobra and Morgan V8

Both of the replicas are genuine copies based on original cars, and so have correct (period) engines and the correct suspension set up from period cars. They have both been beautifully built by their owners and demonstrate what can be done without spending the many hundreds of thousands (or even millions!) of Pounds that a period car would cost.

The other cars are both originals and in equally beautiful condition. Despite their value the owners 'didn't spare the horses' in taking them around the circuit.

The one of the two little girls looks like a Victorian watercolour (that is a compliment!!). My favourite is No. 2 - the colours and the way that you have captured the reflection are both beautiful.

Keep them coming!
