Cool DriverNumber3 1999 Intimidator latest Photos

I returned home for a short time. I had been in the State of Tennessee, I could not believe all the attention I got everywhere people would stop me and they would ask " Is anyone ever told you, that you look like Dale Earnhardt. The folks in Tennessee are convinced he is still alive.
Well I have heard that for so many years.
Now I just mess with you!! Even when I met the real Dale we both about (****) funny stuff. Anyway I got this new Cannon Eos camera looks like a 35mm-SLR. And these are just a few photo's I took when I got home.
It was fun to get back behind the wheel and take a few photo's I also was able to liberate a Leather Interior from a U-pull-it yard and put the interior in, didn't have time to take photo's before I left again. But I should get back in a couple of weeks to play around with it again.
These were taken with the 18mm to 35 mm wide angle lens, this Cannon Eos is a fun camera to use and I am just getting used to it.

Well Thank you!! I just stumbled onto the interior at one of the U-Pull it yards. It worked out ok. It was so Hot and Humid that I was all tuckered out after I got it done.

How sweet, your camera really pulls in the definitions so well. The clouds and blue sky almost make one feel the warmth of the day. Nice work, had to be fun getting out with your car, tunes going and just getting the feeling to pull over and take random shot. Glad to see you getting out, has to be so peaceful. Congrats on the investment in a upgraded camera. Your upping the ante on us eh?

Actually I have been upset that when I go to my Grand daughters dance recital the Camera I had which was a Fuji full body SLR, couldn't filter out the Reds and Pinks they use for the backdrop on the Stage so all the photo's turn out blurred.
So I said to my daughter tell them to change the backdrop and they won't cause they want to sell photo's that they hire a guy to take. Some folks don't even know they are doing this.
Well my sons Cannon filters it out so I kept thinking I need to make that purchase.
So now I can take the shot in low light with no flash and I will be able to beat the cheaters at there own game. ha

Lol, that's funny stuff, obviously your not one to take losing lying down for too very long. Nice you understand camera settings and technical information well enough to figure out the problem you were having. You do know your cutting into the schools principle and art directors after hours down at Joe's Bar slush fund.

Cool

Here is a photo of the 2 Cameras that I have taken with the Iphone
Anyway the Fuji is the Blue unit takes a 14 meg photo plus it has some other features as well the zoom lens is still focal with is good for the details. 14 Meg will allow you to take a photo of the Car you like and then you also might catch a hot chic in the background. Now you can zoom past the Car on you computer and review her details if you wish. Great features.
The Cannon has 2 lenses and one is a 70 to 300mm the is 18 to 55mm which is on it as it sets you can make the photo a wide angle if you want. Many times beginning photographers will get back to far and thus loose the detail in the photo when they take it. They in reality got the whole Grand Canyon and the Car in the photo but it has a lack of details.
I am not 100% on the Cannon yet its about 3to 4 weeks since I got it and took a few shots. But I am learning.
The Cannon has an 18 Meg quality so it will be better for more details.

So now if you go beyond the Monte Carlo which is the main subject, You see Interstate 80 in the background. We can see the Trucks traveling west and what could be a Hummer heading east. In the 3rd photo zoomed in to the Trucks traveling to the West. all these photo's were taken with the 18-55 mm lens set at 18mm for this shot. This photo taken with the 70 to 300mm lens would be very different. I will have to take it at another time.

75 in Nebraska they say you can do 5 more with out a problem, 80 in Wyoming and Montana I think it was 85 when we were up there last year.
But all these cars and trucks going here were doing about 78mph.
Remember I can see the Air!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
