Some pics from Vegas

hafid · #1 03-06-2005, 12:54 AM

Well, the trip was great! I didn't drive up b/c I really didn't have the time to since I was only staying one day, so hopped on a 1 hr flight instead. Much better idea!

Drank way too much and slept way too little, but hey, that's Vegas. It was great seeing many of you though and I have to give a big thanks for my AZ Mini friends who let me crash in their room and hang with them.

Anyway, didn't really shoot much since the weather was not being cooperative and DiD was there with his army of equpment (very impressive Dave) to shoot lots more than I could that weekend.

But I did shoot something....

This was difficult. We're on a cruise with 200+ Minis going through downtown and the strip and I"m in the passenger seat of a Mini and it's moving most of the time. I tried to come up with some good pics but overall, I'm not too terribly pleased. Some did okay though I suppose.

As for the blurry pics. I don't like them but maybe someone here does? The first pic is the about the only blurry one I like. For the most part I abhor blurry pics but felt the need to keep them anyway and see what happens.

I honestly think my fav of the bunch is the one of the garage entrace.

get the full size pic!

Here's a semi "group" shot for you. It's not exactly my best, but it'll, hopefully, do.

familiar MINI?

**OctaneGuy** · #13 03-07-2005, 12:33 AM

Here are a few I took on the first night. These were hand held on my Nikon P&S. I had the fortune of being on the 10th floor directly facing the roof!

I took mostly video on this event, so I don't have many pix.

here's one...MLE took this one too

hafid · #18 03-07-2005, 10:08 AM

hot shot of wanda! and juan, i like the shots of Tuls' car...just curious if you adjust the color levels on it a bit how it might change. I like the far away shot and the one from the front is just MEAN!

**OctaneGuy** · #19 03-07-2005, 10:38 AM

Here's a shot of Wanda as I flew down the twisties to Willow Beach shot on VacuCam.

A few more c3 member cars--Linda in the EB MCS and James in the Silver MC. These originated as still frames from my VacuCam.

**OctaneGuy** · #20 03-07-2005, 10:53 AM

Here's a few more from Hoover Dam..More on the way later..

I have a ton of pics to go through, but you guys are pros. Can I snag some of these to put on the AMVIV site? I will give full credit to the photographers, of course. Juan, I LOVE that smiley pic from Charleston! Way cool!
Haf, you didn't even stop by and say "Hi"?

Fine! Be that way!
Maybe next year?

AMVIV was a good time, wish i got there earlier friday and wish my car was running better, but other than that great time. The cruise down the strip was awesome. Looking forward to doing it again next year. Met a lot of great people, hope to cruise with them all sometime.
