I ended up going to Cantina and Cars about an hour late because of Cars and Coffee . I was greeted by the Pagani Huayra in the main lot , but the crowd that was around it destroyed any notion of plopping down my slider rig and getting an uninterrupted shot.

A little further I saw a Veyron rolling towards me. The owner was so kind to stay stationary for a while so I could get some shots of it. I later learned that it was Arnold Schwarzenegger’s old car. Pretty much the closest I would ever get to actually seeing the man I suppose. Been a big fan and shaking his hand is still on the wish-list but I digress.

T he Veyron rolled off and I noticed there was movement around the Huayra. They ended up being lined up for a shot, and I at least got that pan in because people stayed back. Then the cone was taken away. I swooped in and got the only Slider shot I got close to the car. There are so many things I wanted to have slider shots of, the exhaust being a biggie. Guess I should consider myself lucky. Just a fraction of a second after the slider shot in the video someone walked right through the shot and the Huayra was gone.

There are a few reasons why I don’t shoot as many supercars and hypercars at shows. Crowds is the major one. But don’t for a second think I don’t want to shoot them. I trained myself to ignore them and not care about them. But when there is a chance at a proper shot I will take it because I know people enjoy looking at them.

One thing I found funny about that line up. You have a Veyron, a Huayra and then an Aventador. That A ventador somehow looked completely out of place... Too bad that Senna wasn’t there. That would have made the trifecta. Even though I think the Senna is one ugly duckling.

I doubt I would be able to afford the insurance on that car. That has to be insane...
