Damme, 10 km of Bruges and 10 km of the Belgian coast

During my cycling trip I saw this nice old car.

Number seven picture of the rally

OPEN IN NEW TAB.

Maybe one of the least good of the rally.

The 2021 edition is the year of brave choices for Zoute Grand Prix, which gives a completely different interpretation to its events. Zoute Grand Prix in the past attracted more than 300,000 visitors to the Belgian coast during an October weekend. Zoute Grand Prix spreads the visitors through a different arrangement of the events.

For example, the GT Tour, with modern GT and sports cars, will have Ghent, Bruges and Ostend as anchor points this year. The classic old-timer rally of the Zoute Grand Prix will remain based in Knokke, where the starting podium returns to Albertstrand after a year of absence.

Touring vs Regularity
The Zoute Rally, organized on 7, 8 and 9 October 2021, intended for classics registered between 1 January 1920 and 31 December 1965, forms the backbone of the Zoute Grand Prix. Unlike the GT Tour, which from now on will start in Ghent, the Zoute Rally will start in Knokke itself. The pilots are given a nice course through Flanders and the Dutch polders.

Zoute Grand Prix has two formulas. In "Touring" the participants stick to a three-day ride, in "Regularity" they take part in a timed regularity rally with agility tests and route – with the speed test described as "Flying Quarter Mile" as the icing on the tail.

I hope you like it.

Ciao John, great panning of fascinating old car, fantastic movie effect, wonderful colors and splendid light, very well done, my friend, ciao Silvio

Hello John.
Maybe some of the earlier photos were better, but you still managed reasonable sharpness on the car, and the blurred surroundings indicate speed. I would never know what kind of car this is, but it looks nice in an old-fashioned way and its colour actually matches the scenery well.
Best regards,
Gert

Hallo John,
Een mooie foto van deze oldtimer die door het landschap raast. De vervaagde achtergrond lijkt de auto een enorme snelheid te geven. Mooi werk met aantrekkelijke kleuren en licht.

Hi John,

The blurred background is indicatingt the car is moving. The point of view is showing the details of the old Porsche. The light is bringing out the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello John, Is this panning? we see a beautiful car, not quite sharp, but it doesn't matter and interesting blurred background. I like the colour of the car. And it is better to see it in action than just at the exhibition.

Best regards MAlgo

mcmtanyel (67681) 2021-11-19 18:14

Hello John,
Nice photo of this beautiful car, is that a Porsche?
Regards,

Hi John
A successful panning shot and what a 'cute lady' there. Your ideal shutter speed selected, giving blur for a sense of speed and motion. Nice colour rendition too, Excellent lens work
Best regards

Hi John
A good photo of the old car with great movement showing in the surrounding area.
cheers

Hi John,
Fantastic panning capture. I suppose this happened on the same day as the other photos which you presented with old race cars.
The natural setting adds a nice touch.
Excellent dynamic effect,
M

Hi John,this time the sharpness on the car isn't the best like in the other pics of your recent post,but no problem, nobody is perfect and this car is very nice and interesting. Have a nice weekend and thanks,Luciano

Hello John,

No 86 is a very lovely shape and I like the colour!
By panning, you have inferred a good sense of movement to your photograph.
I read the notes carefully for my husband has a classic sports car. Unfortunately it was built in the early 80's so would not qualify for this event!

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)

ikeharel (112467) 2021-11-20 7:01

Caught while speeding through, John.
I always take such moments (mainly on airplanes) with 1/800 apperture, to have the main subject fully sharp. Here, the car it is borderline sharp due to slow shutter. My humble opinion.
Intriguing old vehicle, for sure.
Have a nice weekend,
Ike

john

special the shapes of this old car, the sense of movement is a fabulous aspect in this compo.

take care

Hallo John,
Je had een geschikte plaats gevonden vanwaar je de voorbij racende wagens kon fotograferen.
De vervaagde omliggende natuur doet me vermoeden dat deze auto aan zeer hoge snelheid voorbij reed.
Vele groeten, Paul

PiotrF (54246) 2021-11-20 16:58

Hello John
A very nice capture of beautiful old car.
I like good composition, nice colours and good quality.
Fine presentation

Heerlijke oldtimer, heerlijke foto. Mee bewogen met de auto, toch nog een beetje vaag, alsof om extra te benadrukken hoe snel de machine gaat. Fijn fotowerk, John. Bedankt, blijf gezond & geniet van je week.

Benny

ktanska (44484) 2021-11-22 11:22

Hi John,
Again a wonderful pan shot although the car is not as sharp as on your previous shots. I guess this is a Porsche 356, although the back looks somewhat different from what I've seen in pictures.

ChrisJ (171252) 2021-11-23 7:45

Hello John

Effective panning to get a good motion blur effect and heighten the sense of movement of the vintage vehicle. Good sharpness and profiled view. Tfs!

Hello,
Un bel effet de filé. Pas facile à réaliser. Un cliché intéressant.
Bon WE.
JP
