Well, he does have a corvette, so that's kind of expected. I won't lie, I love the car you bought Steven, but I can't fathom ever paying $70K for a car. So a Mustang will have to do...plus, I have a sentimental childhood thing with them I need to get out of my system.

I'm shocked to see the TL in Palm Beach Lol... You should definitely check out Midtown to snap a couple of shots; great back drops.

I'd take both the TL or the s2k with a punch in the eye on top before I drove a mustang.

Thanks everyone! 
Gotta love my baby again, it's the only one I got! Yeah, I am not exactly in a bad position now, I still have a car that makes me happy.

Jeremy, as much as I love to drive the Corvette, every time I get out of the Type S, I still turn around and admire it.

Debatable, but I appreciate it. Plus, your Corvette...c'mon...no contest.

Wow amazing looking car. Wish mine looked as clean as that!
Anyways, one big area of improvement on my new TL is the nasty scratched/yellowed headlights. What do you use for polishing and then sealing the headlights? Thanks

Thanks a lot, man...I use a variety of things but mainly on this backup set I switched to that still has the UV coating intact, I ended up putting on the blue magic uv sealant stuff on it every time I wash to keep it from getting yellow. I used to wetsand/buff then put a coat of spar urethane and mineral spirits.

Thanks y'all...it was a gorgeous day to be out...sun was a bit intense to shoot, but it was alright.
1black, yeah, I keep cleaning it but can't figure out exactly where it is...it's only obvious with some exposures and not others. I wonder if it's dust in the actual camera body because I've seen it with other lenses too.

I couldn't see the dust marks......
10-21-2014, 08:10 AM
Unfortunately I can...I'm just baffled as to whether or not it's in my camera or my lens.

I think it's because I had it on low F on the rest...I had a few others that I couldn't use because the spots were far worse. Based on what I'm reading online, it's on the sensor, which I've never cleaned properly I always just used the little blower thing on the mirror, not sensor.
I'll fix it now.
