Camera: Nikon D70 with the kit lens (10-70mm).
Exposure: Manual setting with color set to "Vivid -1".
White Balance: Daylight
Aperture: f 5.6
Shutter: 1/250 sec.
Focal length: 55mm

I was standing up on the base of a parking meter for this angle.
It was late afternoon, thus the lighting.
A trash can was cloned out of the image as was an unsightly crack in the asphalt.

I hope that helps a bit.

So that means we'll need to reshoot your MINI.

My plates are "YACHIDA" ya-ki-da, it's Welsh For Cheers! I was born in Cardiff Wales, so there you go. I've been trying to find someone to put the Welsh Dragon on my wing mirrors, and everyone I've spoken to can't do it. :( My regular plates came in a month ago, but they were VW79086 and there was no way I was going to drive around with VW Hope to see you around! You going to Vegas?? JJ

REGGIE!!! I had no idea when we drove down to the Alzheimers unit a few Saturdays ago that you were THE Reggie! It's so nice to be able to put two and two together. I bet you didn't know that it was me either??? I met you before that Saturday and I didn't even know it until today.

Are you heading up to Vegas???? I'll be up there, leaving tomorrow, bringing my mom. Let me know, so I can bring my heels . JJ
