My old 911 at daybreak

Found this image on an old cd of shots from an old Ixus. Hardly any PP, just brightened up he foreground to balance the image.

Lovely shot - half expect to see that in a car mag. Great!

Lovely shot of a beautiful car, would agree it wouldn't look out of place as a full page spread in a magazine!

Looks more like a 964 Carrera 2 to me :naughty:

930s were the turbo version of the impact bumpers 911s (SC and 3.2 Carrera).

Nice shot, beautiful sky

Lovely shot.

Aren't they all beetles??

Mark's right, it's a 964 C2. And David, if you thing I'm going to bite at that you're mistaken

Oh well, it was worth a try.

Lovely shot of my favourite car, I had a '56 356A and a '79 3.0 SC among others, water-cooling was the day Porsche died a little.

There are some gems amongst the watercooled stuff, 996 GT3 RS for example.

Patrick1964 · 13 Oct 2010

I wouldn't turn down a 997 GT3 RS either. Black with orange decals please...

Mark I've just clicked on your profile - I thought I knew your name from somewhere,

Very nice, a tad grainy, makes it look like an old shot on film. Would do great printed large on your wall perhaps.

Hope you had someone watching your back stood there...

I had assumed it was when Patrick said "an old ixus" - I was thinking APS! Of course, there are ixus digitals too, so I think we need to be told which this is.

Hence the slightly nerdy interest in which model it is!

Patrick1964 · 14 Oct 2010

Digital IXUS from about five years ago, on auto which I suspect led to the camera going for the highest ISO it could find, hence the noise. I'm not claiming it's a technically excellent image, but I do think it has "something"
