The more I see great pics of great looking MINIs the more I want a better camera and more time to get out and take better pics! Good shots!

I know right? Ive been wanting to do more to her but sense im planning on selling her for a 06 MCSc, more money in her would be pointless but after these pics, I dont wanna sell her now!

I know there has to be sooo many cool spots around LA and mostly in Santa Monica too to take pictures but I dont know the city that well to know them I should just yell MINI COOOPERR!! and hop skip my car over the side curb and park it right off Santa Monica and take more pics

Yes indeed, they were great. Nicely priced and they look great imho. I would for sure go to them again or suggest it to others.

I got there prolly around 6:30ish or so. Pretty much I cought the end of the day and went into the night with a quick 30 min transition so not bad at all. Probably the best time to be taking pictures too. I took other pictures a few hrs before infront of our place and with all the sun and so forth, it just seemed like it was over exposed and it was so hot, I didnt feel like playing around with the the shutter or F stops or anything :impatient

but by 6 or 7, the weather was superb. I wish I could have taken more. I maxed out my 512mb stick and I guess my camera battery is pooping out on me cause it wasnt holding its charge to well.
