Just a couple to show you:

First is of RogerRust's wonderful 4-door saloon that won second in concours class in her first ever competition. Marvellous.

Second is a panorama of the main parking area. Not really suitable for displaying on the board as it's too wide, so go see it here:

If anybody wants bigger versions of either then just ask. The full-size version of the first is 2000*3000 pixels, and of the panorama is 2000*15000 pixels or so

Any one else want to guess - I think the one in the middle is .........

If you play with the brightness you can just see Jim reflected in the Green paint.

Still no suggestions about the three matchstick people?

hi there

we're just back in switzerland from our journey from south-england...we did 2700 miles with our traveller in 2 weeks...it was great...
to visit the national-meeting was a great experience:
-we met very friendly people
- the traders with their parts for sale was like a paradise for me as a
swiss-moggie-driver
- the weather was after the first week a really happy thing
- the atmosphere on the ground was amazing
- i did like the organisation, there is always a thing for getting much
better as it was (that's life)

we did very enjoy our trip to england (incl. a visit to goodwood and a trip over the race-track, thanks to the race-ground-chief who did like our moggie

best regards to all we (maybe) met at the national from switzerland...felix

you can see some photos on my website:

Philo, great pictures. More people should post their pics so the people who couldn't make it can get a look at some of the vehicles.

Could easily be cut appropriately..... *opens Photoshop*

Not if you want to keep the composition without a fair bit of creative work - yeah, I tried

Like this?

genius!!!! exactly like that!

Any way you look at it that's one stonker of a picture

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 8:08 pm**

You could say the composition isn't what it was, but either way that would still make a stunning cover...

yeah, maybe one would need to crop a little off each side before squishing it

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 9:12 pm**

I'm gonna get arty here, but the tyre around it is a big part of the compositon, IMO

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 9:55 pm**

I'm with you there Andrew

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 10:17 pm**

What about this version?

I don't think the image is quite as good, but it's portrait...

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 10:24 pm**

Bootiful - though I'd go for a tad more tyre and wheel, and try to make the hub cap a bit more central - espacially heightwise

I reckon that's a definite 'matters' cover shot

Posted: **Sun Jul 29, 2007 10:26 pm**

But with the "minor matters" on the top it might be in the right place
