    Fall 2012 - Post your pictures

    Everyone usually likes to have a "fall" thread to end the driving season before winter.

    Post your pictures from this year. Go for a drive, take some pictures of your car with scenery and post them up. I had the day off today so I went for a drive in the Datsun and took the following:

    Yeah I'm no pro photographer, still learning. I'll even take constructive criticism.

    From last Sunday (I'm no photographer, either - these were just taken with a simple camera)





    I know, it's not lowAr enough...
    Look at your signature, now back to mine, now back to yours, now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn’t mine.

    Graffiti pics are good. If it wasn't such a pain in the ass to take some pictures like this downtown Toronto i'd make the drive and get some good ones in the alleys. There's a lot of awesome graffiti around down there.

    It's a 1981 633CSi 5-speed with a few suspension mods. Pretty rare color called Safari Beige. Was turned off by it at first but definitely warmed up to it over time.

    Framing/Composition are pretty big factors in photography. For your last 3 - Decide what it is you want to shoot and include it in the frame...I would have stepped back and shot the car, gas pumps and old station in one frame from straight on...but I'm no pro.

    Hopefully get some fall pics this weekend heading up north.

    Thanks.

    Yep, took the pics for the CL ad. It sold in record time, lol.

    Well, it's on hold pending financing from the prospective buyer. Banks are closed today so we should wrap it up tomorrow or Wednesday.

    Maybe that is due to excessive drug use, which can lead to prostitution and homelessness.

    Don't drive a Corolla or you might end up a homeless prostitute.
