I am not aware of the thread you speak of. With that said, I usually take my pictures at dawn or dusk when the lighting isn't as harsh and won't make the colors seem washed out. Other than that, just experiment.

Is that the article that had old Cobra's in it? I remember seeing a link to a "How too" on taking car pics.

and after ten posts total I started my first sticky thread! What a valuable member I will be to the mustang community. I mean what a great duo we make for the community.

Seriously thanks for the post. Yes that was the article I was referring to. You've helped out with most of my posts here. Not bad work for a couple of displaced florida boys.

A post that is very informative and can be used in the future for others to read and find the info they seek. So they "sticky" it to the top so it doesn't get moved back to page 2,3,4, ect it stays on the first page and on top.
