Default 2006 Monte SS and 2005 Dodge SRT4

srt4boi505 and I took a trip up to the Tram and decided to snap some pics. The view is very nice up there, and it worked out very well for us. I am still learning the Canon 40D, but I am VERY HAPPY with the results today. These are the best pics I have taken yet, in my opinion. These were all Shot in the AV setting, with 100 ISO. One thing I did find out though, WHITE is very hard to image with lots of sun!



































Gotta love the Captain Morgan pose and 10sec timer lol


Feel free to give your .02 on how to make the next photo shoot better for me, or whatever. Tips are always welcome

Gabriel

Both very nice rides, and the pictures are badass. My buddy has an 04 Black Srt4. Those things move, I was surprized how fast it was when I drove it. Is the Srt-4 faster then your car? I know my buddies has downpipe, exhaust, fwi, bov, short shifter and he ran 13.6 I believein the 1/4

well being at High Altitude, the monte carlo automatically loses power. Me and my boy had a quick run up to the Picture spot, and he beat the monte ss, by a good 6 cars. But his car has CAI, Gutted Downpipe, Catback, and Bleeder to make more boost. I would say his car traps 103-104 up here...the monte only traps 98

I have a 2004 Dodge SRT4 as well, that has a built motor, big s256turbo and so on...it will beat both the cars pictured above

Thanks for all the comments though. I am looking into dropping the monte carlo and getting some lightened wheels for it, in a 17"...any suggestions?

Great pictures! Some calendar quality pics in there.

I think I'm going to upgrade to the Canon 40D when I finish paying off my Monte.
My Canon 30D is constantly giving me problems.
