Dragon Panoramic Pic
Hey all! Just wanted to let you know I received my 6ft honkin' MOTD group shot at the dam dam! You can see everybody pretty much crystal clear, and those in that 4th rear row are pretty legible. Any recommendations on where to frame the sucker? And it's not going in a garage, because one didn't come with my apartment (although you can carry the Mini to the 3rd Floor I guess)... but anywhooo.. it's going right behind my desk at work.. Paul's mini display on his desk will be put to shame!!! They keep telling me I need pictures, and they're gonna get one
(Hurry back from your cruise Paul! And fill us in on what interesting attire you scared people with on it.. thank god you didn't find that leisure suit!!)

Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was in todays mail, what a great shot. I am having mine mounted on "gator board", with a hanger on it and hang it without a frame or glass.
Can't get over how great it turned out. It is a shame everyone didn't get in it. Maybe it should be a first thing in the morning shoot.

Ideally he wanted to take the shot at noon... Obviously that wouldn't have worked though so 3PM was the best compromise we could come up with.
If this is done again next year, the photographer says that he could do it on the ballfield at Fontana and get many more cars in than at the Dam. Since he didn't quite understand the layout of the ballfield this year he ruled it out.
Something for those working on next year's event to consider...

Gatorboard
Most picture framers will have this and a machine to mount it. Any reprographics company (in the old days, blueprint) should be able to do this. Most Kinkos can do this or will be able to suggest a place to get this done. I suggest gatorboard instead of fomecore, because over time the fomecore will curl, due to the length of the photo.
Warning, do not laminate, the laminate will leach the colors out of the photo.
Hope this helps.

Dam Photo
We counted 150+ MINIs. If evryone had been present there would have been twice that. It would have taken forevvvvvvvvver to get positioned. It was still awesome and allowed a lot of time to visit and walk around which is what a gathering is all about. We will be there next year too. We alaready have reservations for Fontana as do a bunch of us.
