Great photo's fredej, they all look great - what camera did you use?
BTW Do you only drive it after a full wash-n-wax!? :)

Thanks, Vijay! :)
I mostly use a Canon M50 with kit lens. Recently I’ve bought a Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens to play around with.

Silver grey is great for hiding the dirt. :P
It also helps that it’s a weekend car and that it’s put in storage during the winter months.

Thanks Mikey! :)
Sweden can be really beautiful.
Right now it's winter. In the part of Sweden where I live, that means that most days are dark, grey and rainy.
I'm really looking forward to spring when it's time to take the Z4 out of storage again!

I must admit, your photography skills are amazing, they look so professional. You really have a great gift. The car, the scenery, your eye for a great picture, really come together well in your photo's. Well done :thumbsup: I can't wait to see more :thumbsup:

Thank you for your kind words, Kay! :)
Cars and photography are interests that goes very well together.
It's can be difficult to find good photo locations. I feel like I too often end up at the same location as previously. However, sometimes it can be interesting to capture changes of the scenery due to seasons.

I really like how the soft light and the sliver grey paint show the lines and surfaces of the Z4 in these photos.

I agree the curvature of the body panels, together with the lighting and shadowing really accentuate the beauty of the design. Great pictures again :thumbsup:

Thanks both of you! :)
Style 202 seems to be relative rare. It's a bit of an odd design, but I think it works well with the Z4.
