hey all, went up highway 33 again. took a few shots. here they are.
enjoy!
taken with my Olympus E-500 DSLR

 

Is there where the Zoom Zoom road is?

Jk, great pics. Very nice scene and clean car, hah.

 

^ thanks Cohdey, but it does makes a good 'zoom zoom' road! hahaha it has the whole package. long banked turns, sharp corners and some good sized straightaways. never any cops this far up, (knock on wood) and is empty during the week. but gets pretty crowded with bikes on the weekends...

 

Any post processing? If not then bravo to the Olympus being able to do great red color reproduction (a feat for most cameras). If you adjusted it yourself, good job, if you didn't, good job on lighting and angles anyway. You're pretty talented. Awesome car too.

 

87 turbo you must be on a picture quality inspection

 

'87- I just did the normal little touch ups. I didn't alter the saturation or light. just the sharpness. it really makes a difference. I just studied the manual over and over. haha

 

wow, beautiful pix. thanks for sharing... where abouts exactly is route 33 relative to LA?

 

wow,
elevation, and turns.. cool..

fla sux..

beers

 

just head up the 101 (from the 405) and stay on it until you see the sign for Ojai Highway 33 turn off (right off the 101,can't miss it) head all the way up and through Ojai. then you just follow the signs in Ojai and it takes you back to the 33.

its about 75-80 miles from L.A.

oh you can see the ocean and the Channel Islands from the top on a clear day.

 

nice chris, now hurry up and throw that front end on! he he

 

beautiful pics! and that road looks amazing too!

(need to do something about that dealership license plate frame )

another 8 with an app kit and no OEM spoiler

 

haha seriously....it will be on soon....just need to make a trip to a few body shops. I want to put all my stuff on (side skirts, and rear fairings) at the same time...gonna be a little costly to do. haha

 

my GF said she is gonna get me a new License plate frame....but she is slacking on it...hahaha...maybe tomorrow

 

Nice pics and road. Took a look on Google Maps!

Glad you got rid of the front plate. Looks so much sweeter. How about replacing that dealer frame with something more befitting your 8? Get going GF!

 

believe me it's a curse how much you feel the need to analyze every photo you see when you start to study photography.

 

this just makes me wanna move back to cali.......

 

oh man....so true, its like every picture can't be perfect. haha can be frustrating.

I use a lot of these pictures for my photography class.

 

Nice. I didn't know LA had some decent roads for zooming.

 

you definatly have to drive a ways to get to them... this one here is about 75 miles away.

 

Those mountains look great. I hate Florida! So damn flat!

Car looks great too.

 

75 miles??? Whoa. That's quite a distance.

Let's see. I'm getting about 18 mpg highway. And at $3.75/gallon, that's about $15.62 just to get there. That would be over a $30 outing. Yikes.

 

so true!!! then there is the temptation to drive harder on the twisties... so that will shoot mileage down more. haha... but its worth it...

Oh Well, I would have bought a different car if I wanted mileage. haha

 

nice pics.

 

And how fast are you going to get 18MPG on the highway?

 

nice pics man.
