LZHS Senior's Photo in Auto Spotting Contest

Jon Hert's hobby is taking photos of exotic automobiles.

Lake Zurich High School senior Jon Hert is involved in a unique hobby called "exotic spotting."  He looks for exotic automobiles (Ferrari/Lamborghini/etc..) and captures them on camera.

He's found lots of great photos in the Lake Zurich/Barrington area. In January he had the opportunity to visit his uncle in Beverly Hills.

"I saw plenty of exciting cars, including a Bugatti Veyron with a dog inside it," he said.  That photo is currently part of a competition, "Spot of the Year," on the Dutch automotive website, autogespot.com
