Apart from the big lamp post to the right, yes!  :roflsmiley: :lol2:

Na, looks good Ghost, it's hard finding streets where your not so worried about leaving your pride and joy half way across the road.  :-[ I'm going to sit in the drivers seat and hide while my sister takes photos.

One things for sure, after looking at that picture, I think I need wider rear wheels.

Very nice!  Two things... need to be a little closer to the car and less background and chould have waited a couple seconds for the other car to pass out of the background.

Good job.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I did some Foto Shoots classes  on the Prowleronline.com forum several months back, including a contest....never have junk in the background of your shot, don't shoot the car on grass, watch your light and shadows, make the car the center of attention in the Foto...look for a background that enhances your cars color...

I have owned 9 Prowlers in the last few years and find photography a great new hobby....

The car was empty, sitting in the corner of the field with a for sale sign, and this was the only part of the highway where it was flat enough in both directions for me to be willing to risk parking the car like that.  I plan on going back later this spring, hopefully the car will be gone by then.

I need to work on some of my picture skills also cause some of mine don't look near as good as I had wanted them to.

Until you try it yourself you don't realize how HARD it is to get a GOOD picture of your car!
I still haven't taken one that I like..there's always something wrong with them it seems.

Here you go Ghost, I thought I'd fix it for you. I changed some of the contrast and color saturation as well. Sal
