In the category trash one and keep one

As I strolled back to my car from the Risenation event in Mechelen, Belgium, I stumbled upon this combo. Instantly, my mind starts racing, pondering which car I’d most love to take home. Now, this decision wasn’t as straightforward for me as you might think. I have a soft spot for youngtimers, and this Toyota Supra JZA80 certainly falls into that category. But then again, a Nissan R35 GTR in what appears to be Millenium Jade might just be the smarter choice for a daily driver.

Speaking of the color of the R35 GTR, it got me thinking – could it possibly be a T-Spec? After all, they do come in this color. But I digress; we were discussing which one I’d choose. I reckon I’d have gone with the Nissan to take home. How about you? Which one would you pick?

Teach them young…

While shooting cars in public locations there is a big chance you get disturbed by curious people. The kids in this shot heard the Nissan Skyline R33 GTR from miles away, when we arrived at the location they were already waiting. Because they knew this was a popular shooting location. They were really interested in the car and already knew a lot about it, probably from video games they played.

In stead of sending them away I let them shoot the car with their cellphones. We need the next generations to keep enjoying our hobby. I will always make time during a shoot for people who are genuinely interested in the subject, so should you!
