Well, I'll tell you in a little bit. I finally made it out to shoot in downtown Raleigh. I processed a few pics and I feel like sharing. I have more to go through but here's what I have so far...

Let's start by looking downtown:

Then we can look through a small perspective of a park near the capital building:

PB09352420081110.jpg

Let's go to church through these doors:

Now, you're on your walk back and you run into a Lamborghini. What do you do? Take a lot of pictures of course and p!ss of the GF:

PB09356520081110.jpg

C&C is more than welcome, thanks for looking.

    You're in Raleigh!? I'm just an hour away. We should shoot sometime!clap.gif

    BTW, where's that trippy new shimmering tree thing just as you come into downtown off the beltline? :D

    Well I actually live in Morrisville and I work in Raleigh. I'm not sure where that trippy tree thing is but I'll look for it. Next time you're near Raleigh drop me a line thumb.gif

    Cool shots, you've got some major lens convergence there on those buildings and doors.

    Ah-ha. That's more downtown than near the beltline. I think you'll see it if you take Hillsboro Ave toward the museum from the beltline. Now is a good time to go too, the Dead Sea Scrolls are in through Dec. :D

    I did that once in downtown Greenville SC with the new BMW crossover suv. I was taking a few shots of it before it was released (built in SC) and then when I took a picture the alarm beeped.

    scared me shitless lol

    Curious what kind of luggage the diver has?
    :P J/K.

    Not sure from this angle, but chances are good that the engine compartment (which is in the rear) has a glass cover.

    You got it clap.gif

    None of the engine shots were good. I couldn't save any in post either.
