Matt Watkinson drove up here last week to take some pics of the AMV8. We spent a couple of happy days taking photos in the rain getting soaked (between beers).

Matt (a PH known to many here) works freelance for Evo, Top Gear, Car etc so he's got a fair idea how to take a photo of a car. (As you'll see - he's a git)

Here are some of the results (I think there are two more to come, but each of the 'rig shots' takes some time to photoshop... so watch this space)

Apologies to dialup, but it's worth the wait. Honest.









..and in case you ever wondered how it was done...



As I say - there are a couple more in the pipeline I think. I'll add here as they arrive.

FYI: His site - www.MattWatkinson.com.

I haven't yet (DVD in post)... but as Matt 'owns' these pics, I'll have to get permission to post or send any - but if he's cool, I'll e mail you.

The car, the location. A bit of automotive heaven there.

Some very nice, professional shots. Frame some.
