Pelican crossing blamed for supercar mishap

A US driver blamed a low-flying pelican after he drove his £1m Bugatti supercar into a salt marsh.

Police in Texas said the motorist was at the wheel of his Bugatti Veyron when a pelican swooped across the road and distracted him.
He dropped his phone and lost control of the car, which then veered off the road into a salt marsh.
The accident took place in La Marque, about 35 miles south-east of Houston, reports Sky News.
La Marque police lieutenant Greg Gilchrist said he did not know whether the car could be salvaged, but added that "salt water isn't good for anything".
The man, whose identity has not been released, was not injured in the accident.
The Bugatti Veyron is the fastest and most expensive production car in the world, capable of reaching 253 mph.The driver had recently bought the nearly new car which had just 500 miles on the clock.Gilbert Harrison who retrieved the car from the lake for the driver said it was probably a write off."He was calm," Mr Harrison said. "If it had been me, I'd have been cussing, but he was calm. I imagine inside he was probably pretty upset." ]]> Transportation Morgan Starr http://photocamel.com/forum/transportation/93472-pelican-1-bugatti-veyron-0-a.html <![CDATA[Tom's Camaro (With helicopter)]]> http://photocamel.com/forum/transportation/93428-toms-camaro-helicopter.html Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:27:33 GMT I had to get at least one photo done before I headed off to work.

I got an opportunity to fly in a helicopter yesterday, and he can fly many places I'm not allowed to. I got to get some photos of downtown Austin.

There were a couple of problems though. He wanted wide-angle photos of some of his property. My favorite lens for aerial photos is my 70-200 F/4 IS as the photos are razor sharp. To get the photos he required though I had to use my 10-20, which I'd only used once before when flying and didn't care for the results.

The other issue was I had to shoot through a tinted bubble window. If you haven't tried this, it's a lot of fun! I could see my bright orange shirt in some of the photos, and glare was a huge issue. You'll notice the colors are off in the photos, be kind, nothing I could do about it!

Lastly, I think the photos look soft. They're not as sharp as I usually get flying in my open cockpit. He offered to take me up again with the doors off, but I'm concerned it's the lens. Should I go with my 70-200 and lose the wide-angle ability. I could have him fly higher, but it would take quite a bit of altitude to get the same shots.





In these two shots, the 10-20 was awesome. To get a shot of both pilots from the backseat is really nice.




We stopped for a bite to eat! You should see the looks we got!
