Fall Wash

October 2nd, 2008. Published under Autos. 1 Comment.

Took some time this week to give the vette a dusting off. Pesky tree sap was covering the whole front end ;( I’d say today epitomizes the love/hate relationship with black cars. Hate to wash, love to photograph

Chasing Sunsets

September 23rd, 2008. Published under Autos, Landscapes, Sunrise / Sunset. No Comments.

It’s getting to be that time of year when I’m usually out and about around sunset time. The fall seems to always provide for some interesting cloud cover, which can make a great pic IMO. Last night was a GREAT show with a bright orange light shining on a HUGE cloud. Of course, the camera came out 10 minutes too late, and it was gone. I *did* manage to get a decent shot of the vette with what little light was left.

Drive to Timberline

September 9th, 2008. Published under Autos. 1 Comment.

Had an opportunity this past weekend to get out of town and take a drive in the ol Vette. After many trips up the mountain in deep snow to hit the resort for a little snowboarding, I always thought it would be a GREAT trip on a sunny day in a fast car. I was right! We arrived in the parking lot for Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood just as a huge weather front was moving over the mountain, and large dark clouds rolling overhead cut the photoshoot to a few quick snaps.

NW Rocky Point Road

It’s once again been a LONG time since I’ve posted here, and what better way to get back in action than a Corvette photo. Here is a quick shot off of NW Rocky Point Rd, in Portland, OR. Starts off a little rough, but a great shot through some twisties once you get started. This was a three exposure HDR blend through Photomatix and Photoshop.

Tunnel Through the Trees

If on a sunny fall day, while driving your roadster, you come upon a long stretch in the road where the trees have formed a tunnel; my recommendation is FLOOR IT ;).
