New wheels, new pics

you will get better pics? what are you talking about, those pictures look great! those pictures really made me drop my jaw, great job!

Yeah - I had my strobes and light stands in my trunk so that I could overpower the sun at sun set, but it was too cloudy so the sun set wouldn't have been all that great. When the sun is setting, it gives off a orange/red hue, which reflects off the paint. Using strobes allows me to use a faster shutter speed to capture the colors in the sky; the strobes light the car so that it's exposed properly (photography mumbo jumbo).

Very nice. What kind/size of tires are mounted in the rims? Do you still meet over at the Sonic around the Oregon Pike (Rt. 272) on Sundays?
We'll start meeting again in 2 weeks (after the holiday weekend). The weather is finally getting warmer (drinks)

looks great, very nice choice! And you must have the patience of a saint to wait 5 months to mount them...
I stuffed them behind a bunch of boxes to make it difficult to get to lol I pulled them out once for pictures and then waited (boom06)

Got to see these with my own eyes on Saturday, they look even better in person! Perfect choice of wheels!

(P.S. Cough-cough-thanksformysigpic-cough. ;))
lol if you want the original without the border, I can email it to you. I wanted to grab the Mazda crew for some group and solo shots but a bunch already left by 3:15-3:30, so I went out solo

Yay, the original full-sized one would be great! I smell a new desktop for meeeee! :D

And I actually had to bail around 2pm .. B's friend's pregnant wife's baby shower was down in Hanover at 5pm, and I had to make sure I had enough time to get back to my apartment, change, pack up the presents, and make the drive the rest of the way down there. I would've much rather stayed at the meet .. trust me!

PM with email sent to j00.
 
s*** dude why did you wait so long, HAWTNESS.
The stock Racing Harts are nice wheels, plus I barely drove it from Dec/Jan/Feb. I put on about 300 miles. Here's what the car looked like before with the stock wheels

I like both style wheels. Speaking of wheels sitting around in a living room. Had these waiting for a couple winter months to be over before mounting.

Looks really good. I like 2 best. Rims fit the car well. I wish it'd stop snowing here so I can go play with the strobes more.
 
I finally got a chance to use the strobes on the MSM. I'm still trying to find a good location for a sun set shot. Still haven't found one in this area.

Very nice...It doesn't hurt that the MSM is a damn sexy car! (2thumbs) plus you've got it all setup with a great stance! :D
 
Amazing car, and amazing pictures!! What kind of camera are you using?

Thanks. Most of the shots are with a Canon 1D MarkII and a Canon 70-200 f/2.8L IS with a B+W circular polarizer. For the photography guys, I'm using a Canon 430EX on the left, Canon 420EX on the right and a Canon 580EX straight on as the master to trigger the two slaves.
