haha wow i didnt even notice that! lol

What's wrong with that?

Im sure you know that here in america they drive on the right side of the road

Oh, you guys are weird.

Steve flipped the image horizontally, so you could read the sign out front. It wasn't traffic ... just in Steve's mind ... Minnesota will do that to ya!

More than likely a couple of 12-ounce hoists of Cabin-fever! :D What bar, Steve?

the picture is flipped so you can read it,,,,it is read from the street side
:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p:p


Mall of America and people driving like the English:D

Nice place to visit but i don't want to be there when it collapses....one pos parking structure design...

Here is another barn I passed on my way home today.

And I am currently working in Naples Italy. Every building, every overpass, and every parking garage looks like this. This isn't so bad, you should see some of the ones I have to look at :eek:

And when they collapse everyone acts suprised.......

BTW this structure is 7 stories high and holds 12,287 vehicles...

if it was in california it would be long gone from the first earthquake..lol

go ahead make my day.

Steve,

Be careful where you are NOT pointing that! :eek:

Here is a Barn I passed on my way home yesterday.

YES I HAD MY A55 WITH ME ..LOL


Going over all my pics of the super america canopy collapse......and I'm wondering what idiot approved the design..talk about under rated construction...chip board not rated for outdoor use...unsupported bolt to sheet metal assembly..... underrated hardware....

Good thing no one was hurt.
Wonder how many canopies will be replaced?

Good quality video SONYNUT.

Looks like a bodge job as the sheet metal is just screwed to the bottom of the RSJs.

Looks like the New Year's Eve is going to be a little tough on Arkansas and lower Illinois, today. Tornado grabbed a firehouse in Cincinnati, AR.

Can you say, "Hey, it's December?" -> Not for much longer.

the funny part was the ''security'' guy that came over yelling at me to quit taking pictures.....the closer he got the slower he got, realizing i was 2 feet taller than him..then he just said please.....yea whatever dude......

Happy new year!!

VIOLA!

Wall decoration will begin ... soon.

Of course, the custom surround is still missing, as it ships out tomorrow, but will not make it for Christmas (there goes the manger scene location). :( Still, the whole thing looks rather modern, as it is.

This image made my day and warmed my ... hearth. :D

Adding the finishing touches ... and I still need that base stained the same as the surround ... but, it is close.

I tell you, it begins to feel like home, again.

EDIT: Finally, on 1/8/2011 ... the final touch.

Think I'll go put my feet up ... :D Ahhh ... only 350 days until next Christmas

Looking good Don.
Here is my 6 month old grandson.

Good shot, Frank. Catch lite looks great.

I am curious as to the Black & White choice.

Me too and it's toooo dark.
Look at those lovely big eyes but no detail in the iris.

Just wanted to try something different. Here is the color one.


Thanks

Just think of the gas milage this thing gets. :eek:

qualifies as POTD! :eek:

someone liked ''it's a small world'' a little too much.

Every time some body mentions Disneyland that bl**dy song pops into my mind.

New here so thought I'd start by posting a pic, currently using a Sony a55 which was an upgrade from a Sony a200.

Taken at the Perth Motorplex just on sunset using the following:
Camera: Sony A55
Lens: Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8
ISO200
1/200 sec
f/2.8

Edit: never mind

nice lookin ride.

Anyone know the base ISO of the A55.
Usually 200 with the Sony CMOS Sensors.
