How does it run? I know eventually I want to go with boost on my SS, I have been leading heavily toward turbo though.

Here are a couple more under hood shots of mine (not my car, but my shots):

I have a shoot scheduled for October with a fellow Oklahoma photographer. He specializes in cars, does the rig work for rolling shots, the whole 9 yards. I can't wait to see what he comes up with!

Here are a few examples of his work:







He is an artist for sure!!

Hey, there is no "level" in this thread. Just a few folks that enjoy capturing life through a camera lens! Great shots, I love the little frog, and thank you for the contribution!!

Keep em coming!!

Great stuff everyone!

I'm on another laptop right now and found these photos from an Outer Banks trip in 2009. Took these with a point and shoot Olympus that I have. Can't rest a big DSLR on my steering wheel.

The first 4 are on the way to the ferry to Ocracoke Island. The 5th is a house at the ferry depot. If I ever won lotto, I would buy it! The next two are at Howard's Pub on the island. Great place! The next three are driving around the island.

Some more Outer Banks..

First is at a Sonic where some birds begged for food, second is the lighthouse @ Bodie Island, third is looking up the staircase of the lighthouse, and the forth is a Camaro at the outlet shopping center.

WOW, that staircase is a wicked shot man, nice use of angles!

So, do you boys and girls ever go back and look at your work from the past? I usually try to do that every so often to remind myself where I started.

This is from Aug. 2007, I bough my 1st DSLR shortly before....and well, had no idea what I was doing:


It is what lit the fuse though. I picked up every book I could find, followed what I considered to be great photographers on facebook, twitter, and their blogs. Now, I am proud to say that I can produce and image that looks like this:

Nice shot! You shoot a lot in that parking garage.

This is stuff I shot while walking around the my neighborhood.

one more from the firecracker shrub. Faster shutter speed would have been nice.

They are actually two different garages. I shoot in a mixture of 4 garages, depending on the vehicle, the lighting I am wanting, etc.

It does get repetitive, but I know I can get good results out of the locations.

They look great!

Williams, AZ is a Route 66 town. Cool place to visit.

Today my flower garden was full of life:
