Arrow Mount Dora, FL CFBMW + me outing

took a lil 125 mile roundtrip journey Monday evening out with some friends of another local car forum called CFBMW.org to the north country outside the Orlando city limits. so many great photo spots in historic downtown Mount Dora, & the roads out & about the area are just amazingly fun to carve the corners in BMWs & my Si alike.

here's some of the pics from 1 of the 2 photographers that came out with us.
quoted from the site; only omitted 2 pics currently to keep them a mystery for a few days (dont ask, dont tell ):

here they are anyway...



























just in-case you wondered.. the BMWs in attendance that evening is as follows:
silver CSL-esque, Vorsteiner, & Active Autowerke SuperCharged E46 ///M3 (this set are from Frankie's camera)
gray SuperSprint exhaust/headers E39 ///M5 (not pictured here but was the other photographer & pics will be up eventually)
dakar yellow road race-prepped but street [il]legal E36 ///M3
silver E36 ///M3

when the 2nd photog's pics surface on the cfbmw site, ill be sure to share them as well.

ENJOY!!

Love the cars... but not exactly impressed with the picture quality, especially from a dSLR.

yeah *sigh* it was HELLA dark outside & as quoted above, Frankie wasnt really feeling the shoot that night nor was he impressed @ the results (i just hope the other guy gets his shots up sooner than later!)... it was entirely too cold & windy out. he's still learning on the manual features of the camera tho to be honest.

the best part of the night was definitely just the cruising around i still believe.

They're not bad shots, just a little drab and out of focus. Some quick post processing can really bring the shots out. I did this one in about 30 seconds.

i need ANOTHER job just to support my "habits" & fantasies...

some ppl choose to smoke... some ppl choose to go to school... some ppl choose to try & set their vehicle apart from the rest by customizing it to their personal preferences.
