Leaving Jim's

Quick stop

Jim and Kyle won XM hats... and we had an impromptu photoshoot and Jim's "other side" came into play ;)

Risking the camera, hanging the DSLR out the window in light drizzle. Pardon the sagging driver's door.

Stopping at the same location as we did 2 years ago... the building was still vacant and so it was once again a good photo / shoot-the-*shoot* opportunity before the end of the day
Image

Frankenfamily's 40th.
Image

Hands in pockets
Image

The lineup
Image

Again
Image

This sign was hanging around and wound up on Justin's hind end... must've been from a movie set or something.

That is really nicely done! Those pictures are like magazine shots. Way to go. I missed the 90 SSE's progress from the chrome grille up until now, and it's a pleasant surprise. Everyone's cars look as great as ever. Possibly the strangest picture so far was of Frank's 40th because it looks so much like my SLE. OE bulbs FTW!

Is peterG's car lowered? Or is it just the 18's that make it look that good?

Little bit of both...if you look there are a few of him in full on view, not sure why he is so camera shy, guy doesn't have a bad pic of him!

My favourite is the one of Justin, myself and Seth....great candid.

Cody do you remember Madusa, the Greek God, if you view a frontal picture of me you turn to stone. Yes I know you've seen me in person but this only happens in photo's.
