Actually a cell phone shot I couldn't pass up. Hope you enjoy and maybe I'll get the opportunity to get a better shot with my big boy camera later.

HTC Incredible 2.

I guess I should have squatted for a lower angle shot. I was too busy admiring the beast.

A true lead sled! Awesome. Definitely worth catching with the real camera.

You don't want to get hit by one either. I had someone back into me with one once. I was in a '60 Chevy. It hit me hard enough that it knocked the front end of my car up over a curb and tore a hole through the front fender. The only mark you could see on the caddie was that it knocked off two of the red bullet tail lights. That thing is seriously built.

Love this car so much! ...who cares you only had your phone with you? Although would be cool to photograph it with the real camera!

Sorry to bring this back from the dead, but this car is always parked is a crappy location to get a good shot at it. I have been trying to get it for a while. They rarely back in the space to get the front, if they do, its usually surrounded by people from the Yacht Club.

Ask them if you can photograph the car one day. Set up something and give the a photo for their time.

Complaining is easier than finding a solution to the problem and being more excited once its found! :D


its not how you take the picture, its the final result before editing.

Yeah, complaining is so much better, they are usually closed when I get down there.
