    Anthony,

    Thanks again for the other shots. "Metallic Gold" is a very nice color and both photoshoots (in the early AM and later in the day) turned out really nice.

    The 400i is one model you don't see too often. When you do, it's usually one car. But what a treat to see a Blue 412 next to it and another Silver 400i further down the row. Thanks again for posting the pics!!

    Bill

    The Gold 400 gets tracked quite regularly! It's a scarcer 5 speed as opposed to the usual automatic. I know the owner and car well...it's immaculate even with the tracking! The silver one also got a platinum award!

    Great video Jay! Was this 360 F1 Spider the one with the Challenge grill and the Forza plate cover?

    Wow Richard, amazing pics. I hope you don't mind if I ask, What lens/camera setup are you using?

    Those who went I probably saw you as well, I was at a HUGE picnic event right on Weaverley(just North of Tauton). So if you happen to exit 401 at Weaverly and used that to get to Mosport you may remember seeing an open area, soccer field and a bunch of cars. I know for sure that I saw Ferrari's flying back and forth all weekend.

    Well I just got back from a great day at Mosport. The weather was amazing and the turn out wasnt too bad. However, I suspect yesterday was a better turnout.

    Here is my contribution. Most of my shots would simply mirror the other's photo's so here is just a couple of my fav's :)

    You take a picture of my car on pit lane but you didn't come up to say hello? I don't believe you were there! :D

    Yesterday was better, a lot of the Americans saw the rain and left early for home. Vasco, did you see the beautiful 512TR euro that was in front of me? Great car! Won silver award on Thursday. You also missed the 333 and 59TR.

    Hi Jay. Yes, I saw you, Rob and Rock. But you guys were all chatting it up at different times and didnt wanna be a bother. The 333SP is my alltime fav competizione car and I am happy to have seen one once again. Too bad I missed it on the track along with the TR yesterday. That Buano (?) took the show for me. Any other info on it?

    Yes, I also saw the Euro TR and was also one of my fav's. They left pretty early. Long drive back to Montreal ;) We'll have to meet up another time Jay. Sorry I didnt say hi. But yes....I was there :D

    between the cards and full-fledged paintings, the show will keep me busy for a while :)

    Great shots!! So organized, how you can view them in albums according to model. Very nice.

    Thomas and Bill,

    thanks :) For this stuff I am using a Canon 1D III. As far as lenses, for travel work like this I use a set of Canon zoomers (what I can fit in a backpack)...
