Photographer’s Note
I'm calling this artwork because it's a superbly designed supercar. The Lamborgini Murcialago LP640 is the latest in the Murcialago series.
Murcialago was a famous bull that was set free by its bullfighter for being brave. The bull's qualities of strength and power have been encapsulated in this mean machine that will move your insides as it rips it's v12 engine and 640 horse power. This means the LP640 can now accelerate from 0 to 62mph in 3.4 seconds (0.4 seconds faster than the previous model), with a top speed of over 200mph.
At $US 338,000 each, I might buy 2.. ;)
This car was on display at the Brisbane Motor Show, held in February this year. It has been going since 1962. I'm a big fan of the lines here, hence the close up...

Hi Craig,
The car itself is a work of art indeed. Tight cropping work well here to emphasize the lines and contrast. Well done ... TFS.
Cheers,

I love this car. Shame that I miss the money and they don't make them environment friendly :D. BTW its a Murcialago. All Lamborghini cars are named has a pure Bull race - in honor of the origin of the Brand - Tractors :D.

Hi Craig,
Beautiful design indeed. And what a saturated yellow paint. Round lamps make a good contrast with otherwise linear forms. Close-ups are a good way to present cars although I'd like to see a little more on the left.

yellow!! very yellow!! perhaps this hasn't been received so well because it's not much of a travel photo. but i still think it's a great shot, and why not. sexy cars are just as important as world peace, aren't they?? ;)

hello Craig,
i won't repeat how great this car is or how much i would like to own one...i'd rather say that although the color is super and the quality of the image very good i find the composition a bit uncreative for such a piece of art...you could crop tighter to isolate the lights or include a bigger part of the car or try different angles or...
anyway,i wish you to get a Lambo one day ;)
regards,
kostas
