Today we started the driving portion of our trip. This morning we went to pick up my BMW 320D "or similar vehicle" and got this Jag XE instead. Not a bad car. It has some fancy electronics and is pretty snappy. But it's got less room than a 3-Series and is considerably tighter getting in and out. I had to learn a new set of controls and nav system, but we're getting along ok now.

Nice lines Gary. It's strikes me that we're looking at beautifully executed lines in plastic. Of course, it's light and gets the job done, but I remember the days of steel and aluminum fondly.

Some fun pics here. I have a CF card with some new shots, but my motherboard threw a S.M.A.R.T. error for the drive that my main light room library is on, so I am not going to add any more data to it, and am currently backing it up to restore to a new 4TB unit. The old one is a 3 TB drive that was well over half full so it is taking a bit of time...

So here is an oldie from the 2012 Sonoma Historic Motorsports Festival. The Cobra was by far my favorite car as a teenager.

I've just borrowed a Fuji 60mm Macro lens from a pal to try on my XT 1. Here's a sample . . I'm impressed with the IQ so far.

Think I have my stupid computer sorted out. Stupid windows won't recognize a drive over 2.2TB out of the box. At least it gave me the opportunity to finally switch from LR 5.7 to LR CC as I am guessing 5.7 won't support the 5DIV. From last weekend:

A beautiful shot of the Aventador Gary. It reminds me almost of the lines of a 'stealth' aircraft.

Great shot!

Now, that's the way that Carol Shelby meant for a Cobra to look...ridden hard and put away hot. You know that you'd love to meet the owner. He'd be someone that could drive and would invite you to drive it, if he knew that you could drive, instead of make it a pedestal museum piece.

Today we were in Hereford to see the cathedral and walk around the shopping area. There was some work going on at the cathedral and the woman who greeted us apologized for the ensuing dust the workers were raising. Personally I would have thanked them with a pat on the back.

Lucky you. Great shot, enhanced by the dust and rays.

What lens is that? There's amazingly little geometric distortion.

Beautiful shot Mark! I bet that could be a really cool B&W conversion as well.
