Picture of the Month #23

Click to see a full size image.


Kicking off the new year with something different: PistolPete's car, shot by Peter Moy. Pete has
finally trained his trusty camera on his own car for a change, for this early Fall '11 shot with the
New Jersey cliffs providing the colorful backdrop at the base of the George Washington Bridge.

Beautiful composition.

I have to defer to Pete on this one - the exif data didn't come with the jpeg he sent to me.

Nikon D200
Nikon AF 80-200mm f/2.8D lens
Aperture priority, probably around f/4 or f/3.2

The lighting made the difference, this was early in the morning and the sun had just climbed over the horizon.

Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Re: Picture of the Month #23
Ok, I'll say nice picture too, and it is. But I like the picture of the twins better.

Love the colors in the BG, love the angle of the shot on the Cayman with its wheels turned in. It just looks fierce.

Re: Picture of the Month #23
Beautiful shot, Pete.

I've got to show this one to my wife, she's a pet photographer, but has taken a few pics of my car.
