I was shooting on a misty morning in Napa. The sporadic drizzles made it necessary to have one of my assistants wipe the car between every exposure. With patience, a rich blue emerged in the background of the photograph as the sun peered through the clouds and kissed the car with just enough light to make the Alpina’s signature paint job sing. This car comes from the exclusive manufacturer Alpina, a car manufacturing company that has partnered with BMW. This B7 is Alipna’s interpretaion of BMW’s 7 series. This photograph was for the March edition of Robb Report’s Car of the Year Issue and was taken at the beautiful Staglin Family Vineyard.
