I've got another orange Superleggera (tomorrow) and after that a TT 458, GT3 RS 4.0, Ford GT, 599 GTO and Atom booked for this month/early Dec.

Thinking about doing a pristine Grand National at a shop I do work for....ya'll like those?

Will's car is just a regular Gallardo, but it's going to be sick when he really starts throwing money into it. I laugh when he calls it the slow car.

Yea...just saw the front clip of the car before I shot it.

He is selling it, so no more money is going into it.

Jordan, what is SmugMug?

Love those rolling shots of the Superleggera. That 11mm focal length is so sexy.

I use Smugmug for my clients. It's where they can go download full res files and order prints, etc and I can have it all password protected so I can do proofing. Some people use it as their main website, some use it to host photos, and some like me. I think there is a free version of it with watered down features. I like it because its a place where I can post all of my stuff and have it on lockdown, but easily accessible by me to show to potential clients. The client can also link and post images directly from my account as well, making it a little easier for them to share.

I do like that 10-20 lens, it's just not very sharp compared to some of my go to lenses. Center sharpness is workable, but the edges are pretty soft. For rollers it's good because you get a lot of movement from the environment.

Bored of it already? Well, there's always Booger.

Needs to just go ahead and shoot for the FGT.

Your HDR could use some work.

You made a decent shot into a brilliant one.

In North Carolina it's not rare for it to be 70 on Monday and 40 on Tuesday, so all of the awesome cars come out on those rare warm days

Ah now that you mention that, on Saturday when it was in the low 50s I did see a GTR at a small town tavern. A young-looking guy was in the driver's seat so I didn't snap a photo, but I did see the Illinois (think it was Route 66 special) plates did say "GTR", too. White exterior. I was like, wow, wouldn't expect to see this here.

Looks like it's at some kind of body shop? Or Lexus dealer? Marked with a yellow sticker like the rest.

Luxury collision body shop which is connected to a Mercedes-Benz dealership. There wasn't any damage to the vehicle so either it had been repaired or was traded in and was parked there.
