thanks which ones look bad or have bad composition?

im still practicing with my camera i have a rebel xti with 28-135mm IS USM lense.

not sure what those robbers used. it was a very small silver gun prob like 5-10 inches. smaller than a glock. looked like one of those usp bb guns

woulda been nice to have a double barrel shotgun lying around though

dang....bittersweet. Great pictures, bad experience.

You're car is making me rethink the Euro-R kit and getting the OEM kit instead.

I wouldn't be pressing my luck in suing the assholes. Remember, they had your license, therefore they know where you live - or maybe not since they were pretty stupid.

Better be safe than sorry though.

nah i doubt im going to be suing them for anything since its not worth my time or the lawyer fees. but i do want to make sure they are put to jail for awhile. having a gun pointed at my face is definitely not something i wanted to experience but i did and no one will do that to me without getting away with it

hopefully...

Looks sweet... maybe you'll want to Photoshop the text off the blue background in some of your pics... composition is good, the text is a bit of a distraction!

Sweet pix! Love the a-spec. Who bought the white car first? Or was that a joint decision? I gotta say, like your car way better, but hey, we might be a little biased around here

Perhaps you will try a place with better security next photoshoot.

Great photography, liquid! The 28-135 is a highly underrated lens. Very sharp shots. Sorry about the robbery That really sucks.

haha thank you for the compliments. i do want to get the basics in but no $$$$ at the moment. and yeah the 28-135 lense is a very nice lense. for its price its awesome. the pictures do come out pretty sharp and crisp and is definitely a great walking around lense


heads up all the criminals involved were arrested and are in custody as of today

Great pictures. I planned on doing a similar shoot with my friend that has an MS6. It does suck what happened to you though. My dad's paranoid about me now that I'm driving a new car and is afraid this sorta thing would happen to me. Houston has some pretty bad areas too. I'm glad to hear that those low lifes got arrested.
