What could possibly be better than this? It’s a beautiful, clear day. The sun is shining. You’re at a photoshoot by a lake. Your subjects? Two blonde swimsuit models. Dressed appropriately. It’s almost perfect, but something’s missing. There’s not enough… Smoke. Cue the GTO. The tires light up and fill the sky with a white […] More »
