Photos by Grant Hodgkins, shot in HDR at the 2013 LA Arboritum "Serpents In The Garden" show with a Nikon D50 and a post-production technique called "tone mapping" - which combines multiple photos taken over an interval of several seconds into one photo, thus explaining the "oil paint" look.
Stunning car and its beauty is enhanced by the excellent photography. Most of us consider a non black or white color paint for our babies but this looks menacing and sophisticated. Like James Bond in a tuxedo. For me the simple black & chrome combo helps the viewer focus on the cars inherent body shape; strong, sexy and sporty. Well done.
Besides, how can you not like a guy named Eddie?!
Nice pics, love the number plate too.
I saw the movie a while ago and have figured out your screen name.

Screen name is indeed from Reservoir Dogs, so is the Avatar. It's a screencap.
My I8A RAT license plate is from Beverly Hills, 90210. Steve Sanders had a blue Corvette and his license plate was I8A 4RE. (I ate a Ferrari.)
Believe it or not, I met the guy in real life at a car show in Burbank. He could not believe my license plate was not already taken - nor did I when I applied!
That guy looked early 30s in the TV show and he STILL looked early 30's - ha!
