Straight from the camera except for cropping - at Mt Hotham (6000ft), Victoria Australia on a 4-day club drive.

Awesome. Nice contrast between the cars and the dark clouds behind them.

Oops! I didn't notice them!
I'd have moved the camera and made a feature of them if I had noticed them.

I got around to some light post-processing on this photo from the clubMINI drive at Mt Hotham, Victoria, Australia.

They get 16.5 then want a learners permit and the keys. Well NO. NO. Until you can reach the peddles.

I went out to do a little photoshoot with my '09 PW/B MCS yesterday. I realized that getting a two-lane road all to yourself isn't as easy as one might think. Enjoy the photos.


Happy Motoring!
-G.B.

Edit: I'm sorry the pics on here aren't the best quality,

Thanks! I like the effect with the headlights on; but on my car, the car has to be on in order for the headlights to stay on. :(
