Btw Brian... if you happen to take any more shots from the Falls area or even up your way in Ashburn, I'd really be interested in seeing them.
Thanx-

Nice dude, didnt know you were a local bro......did you sell your Z?? Looks like an accord 6spd coupe in your sig pic. My buddy has a silver one, not a bad little car...we've surprised a lot of people on the street with it.

Well raw pictures are ment to be adjusted in photoshop. If you want to have pictures straight from the camera, take them so they are automatically converted to jpegs.

When I take pictures in raw, I get the blah look. But then I can adjust them in photoshop and really bring them to life. You can do that with jpeg photos as well, but it works better with raw.

Yeah, I got rid of the Z a few months ago for something a little more practical for my new crappy life as a commuter. It wasn't bad driving the Z 15 miles to work, but when I had to go 30 miles...or 1.5 hours in NoVa speak...it kinda sucked. The new car is a 2005 Acurs RSX, base model, auto with the sport shift. It's actually a fun little ride. Great on gas mileage, has a nice interior, leather, sunroof, etc. Oh, and my girlfriend has a pristine 2002 WS6 in the garage, so I still have that to play with when the need arises.


To everyone else - thanks for the kind words. I accidently lost my pics from out at Great Falls when I built my new computer...but I'll be sure to get more from all around the area in the coming months.. I love this new camera very much, and it's pretty much become my new hobby
