Ok, ok.  I will spill now, but you guys have to promise not to get mad at me.   :grinno:

When I first heard about this calendar thing, I was discouraged to even try because of my car's "niceness"  It has a lot of rock chips, a crappy painted top with only one c-pillar seam filled, an electrical tape side-stripe (thats my favorite :lol: ).

Anyways, I had to get a picture that would hide all of that.  Rain was the obvious choice.   :roflsmiley:

My cousin has a pretty nice camera, he does weddings and things as a side business to make extra cash, so his camera is way more sophisticated than anything we would buy at Circuit City.  He only lives a half mile away, so I gave him a shout.  I had this crazy idea of wetting down the end of the driveway with the hose, to make it look wet.  Then, parked the car just so, wheels turned, lights on.  I got the step ladder for my cousin to stand on, so he could get up in the air to eliminate any chance of grass/tress/junk to be in the picture.  I stood to the side with the hose and made it "rain".  WSM guessed correctly.  It was a touch dark outside, so he set the exposure a touch longer on the camera to brighten the picture. 

Thats my secret.  I just thought I'd give some creativity to the lot, make it stand out.  Here are some more pictures we took.

 :2thumbs: Your cousin did a good job with the pic, in my view nothing wrong with doing such, it was YOUR car and no photo shop tech. was used. However, when a certain post "suggested" the pic may not be as exactly perceived my coment was not exacly a "guess"  :bigsmile: A good camera, some light settings (natural or otherwise), shutter speeds, etc. can make for some great pics, oh.........some experience and skill also helps.  :2thumbs: Great shot.
