Here's some newbies!

YAY!! it was totally spur of the moment on the way home seems to be the best way...

**Motor On** · #2 12-30-2005, 07:38 PM

sweet I like the B&W

TheOldMan · #3 12-30-2005, 07:42 PM

Really nice! My first reaction was the B&W as well. But then the color in the second is fantastic.

**Tüls** · #4 12-30-2005, 07:51 PM

thanks....

the thing I like about the second one is how the building looks kinda like something older than modern....all the bricks and the rigging...heh...

but yes...I was pleased with the simplicity of the #1

thanks again...

That's what it is, the unfinished bricks at the top look like some Aztec ruin.

That's EXACTLY what I said when he showed it to me. The second is my favorite

amazing colors

It's funny but we were in a small border town once and all the buildings on the street looked similar...unfinished pillars and rebar shooting out the top of buildings. My friend from the area said that buildings were not taxed by the government until they were completed......therefore none of them ever were!!!! Ingenious!!!

**Tüls** · #12 12-30-2005, 10:17 PM

here's a couple more...but they are not as nice...still kinda kewl...but didn't hit me like the other two

hot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ScuderiaMini · #14 12-30-2005, 10:34 PM

nice pics

**blacknblue** · #15 12-30-2005, 10:37 PM

Pic 1
The lines. What else can I say?
Every line, be it shadow or otherwise, draws the viewer to your MINI.

Pic 2
Definitely the color!
The sky, that rebar, those bricks . . . your MINI!

Envious I am. If only I could find equally cool locations around here.

MSFIT · #16 12-30-2005, 10:54 PM

awesome pics!! I luv that first one in B&W!!!!

sry to go off topic but did mike flat black his car?? if so any pics?

Just because I have something for sunset/rises, I like #2. The scaffolding adds interest.
#1: I like the convergence of hood stripes and reflected streaks on the body. At first I didn't like how dark the car is, a sinister feel, but it grows.
The backlighting in #3 and #4 sucks; it's the bane of video taping. [insert 'barfy' here]
BTW: tonight I looked towards Phoenix and saw color, that when you took #2?

thank you....and....as for mikes car...pics of it right now would be tragic....ask him

**StoopidGirl** · #21 01-01-2006, 03:12 PM

here's an old shot I took of Tuls' car in a building that was going up. It's a little blast from the past but I'm not sure if it ever got posted.
And I don't beleive we have any photos of Mikes car right now...I'll agree w/Tuls on that one...it woudn't be pretty :P

Just wanted to say I still think about many of these photos everytime I pass a construction site and have a camera in the car, one of these days.....

TwOMINIs · #25 11-25-2006, 04:17 PM
