    I know - I normally don't like the M nose, but those wheels were hot hot hot.

    It's an Olympus EVOLT E-300, 8MP SLR. I couldn't move the cars into position obviously, so the backgrounds are what was there - I should have used a smaller aperture perhaps to blur the background more.

    Thanks Karc, I'm still getting better with it. I had a lot of blurry shots since I wasn't being careful enough about holding still. But I'm very pleased with the depth of the color and contrast of this camera.

    Hi Great Pics! Any chance you got the chassis numbers of the F512M or the 275GTB/4? Thanks

    ?? Your monitor must be calibrated differently than mine. That looks 30% washed out.

    EDIT: Doublechecking on our desktop's new LCD, I confirm that the color of my first shots look fine.

    Could be. All the photos you posted are very, very dark as viewed on my NEC.

    My contrast is set to ISF standards so maybe your brightness is too high and your contrast is too low?

    Perhaps. Sometimes pictures I print do come out dark.

    Getting here a bit late, but I confirm, the first pics are perfect, the "cleaned up" one is completely washed out. Time to recalibrate that NEC!!!

    Great pics Ryan. That marrone TR on their website looks really neat did you happen to see that one when you were there or get any shots of it?

    No, I didn't get to see it - their sales/storage facility is at a different location than the service.

    I had my 355 major and a bit of other work done on my 73 911.
    It was all done on time and perfect. I would use them in a heart beat.

    I wish I could come up on sat but I think I will not be around.
