Cars & Coffee January 2014
 

Anyone going this weekend?

Considering it.

doubt it

I'll be there.

Wife has to work so I'm out

I will be there.

Out of town.

I think I'm going and I'm going to bring the Phantom.

Phantom? As in a Rolls? Wtf..

Quad copter

I'll be there.

I'll be there in David's mustang.

Oh yeah, which one?

White one testing it out.

I'd like to see that.

Derek, are you going to the FW C&C on the 11th at Montgomery Plaza?

GOing to try for that one also. But I'll actually wash the car for the Ft. Worth C&C. Don't feel like washing it with as blasted cold as it will be tonight.

Is it tomorrow? I'll go

C&C is the first Saturday of every month, so yes it's tomorrow.

Parking with the old folks in the vette area?

I am going to make it but won't be there early enough to park my car. I do want to finally meet some other members and get some stickers if possible. Will somebody have stickers to purchase tomorrow?

Here are a few shots I got this weekend.

What lens you using? Looks like a slightly distored 14 mm? U have good taste in cars, lots of people who post pics post some cars that dont belong in the parking lot imo. Lmfao why get a photo of a miata with no paint on the door or a Mazda 626?

I really liked that Mach 1.

Wanna buy one? lol

Thanks! I own a Mustang and an Infiniti so I definitely appreciate other kinds of cars, but I go to C&C to see/photograph Lambos, Ferrari's, Porsches, other high end cars, or other unique cars.

The lens is a Tamron 10-24mm. Most of the car photos I take are at 10mm.

How much?

Cars & Coffee January 2014
 

It has an 03-04 cobra motor with a kenne bell. The Mach one scoop is held on with a custom bracket to keep it's original look. It even has the cobra 6spd in it. It's a badass ride for sure.

Oh and the car has 20,000 original miles too.

Around $15k'ish. It's the most gently used Mustang ever in history, I can guarantee that. It hasn't been over 70mph in YEARS. The wife just cruises it, I doubt it even ever gets rev'd over 5krpm. lol I think it's only got something like 78k miles on it. No wrecks or abuse. The car just sits 90% of the time. The only time I ever drive it is up to the corner to put gas in it, other than that I avoid driving it if possible.

Only mods: Flowmaster catback, MGW shifter, O/R X pipe, sportline springs and 18 inch chrome FR500 wheels. I have all the original parts boxed up to go with the car if we were to sell it. It's not officially for sale, but if someone came along with cash she might take it. /shrug.

How do you like the lens overall? Do you use a filter? I want the nikkor 12to24 but its like 1400 bucks. Not sure Id use it enough lol rather get a new body like the d610 or cannon mkv

Damn it Steve why must you temp me like this......

If it's nice this weekend I'll pull it out of the garage and take some pics. Not sure how many people here have seen it other than Donnie and Matt.

I have a buddy in Florida that might drive down here to buy it.

I like it. It's not as sharp as some other lenses, but at under $500, the price is right. For these I was using a CP filter, but I usually use a Gradient ND filter.

What level ND?

It's a gradient so it's dark at the top and clear at the bottom. It doesn't have a level like a regular ND filter. I would say it's pretty mild though.

Oh. I was just looking up some variable ND filters out of curiousity. When I sold my old lens and camera I sold my ND filters with it. Need to get some more.
