most of those in that album are hdr and i use photomatix to process all my hdrs. i showed that client with the 370 an album of regular shots and an album of hdrs and almost every photo he preferred were hdr and all the ones posted are the ones he purchased. i liked how a lot of them came out i feel like hdr really brings out the glossiness and accents in the cars. but yeah i will be up there saturday and hopefully get some photoshoots lined up while im there.

Well, I have some bad news. I don't think I'll be able to go with you guys. I managed to break the allen key for the special lug nut on one of my wheels while I was trying to fix a small break problem and can't get it out. So now I have a wheel that won't come off and the break problem. go figure... If you guys ever want to get a local meet together let me know. I was looking forward to meeting some other car enthusiasts.

For some reason the previous owner put these special lug nuts on every stud. So I have 20 of them on my car... I finally found some allen wrenches that will fit them, but thats not really the problem. When the key broke the end part got stuck inside the lug nut. After unsuccessfully beating on it and attempting to weld something to it and take both the broken key and lug nut out at the same time, the parts are now stuck together. forever... and still on the car. I will probably have to take it to a shop to get it drilled out in the morning because I don't have any more ideas or tools.
