Automotif DLXXXIV...


I hate it when I juuuust miss a shot, like I did with this 1968 "Series 1½" Jaguar XK-E. I was panning with the Sony a700 and 16-80mm f/3.5-4.5 Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* zoom lens. I started at the extreme end of the zoom range and had to back out a bit as the car passed, but didn't manage to back out far enough.

The "Series 1½" E-types have some of the changes mandated by the new FMVSS standards: Headlamp covers removed and non-winged wheel nuts are the most obvious.
