Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Hi All,

Saw these cars out at the Barossa Valley on Thursday and couldn't resist, not often you see these cars around Adelaide.

Took all of these with my 70-200 and 1.7tc, didn't have my 18-70 with me at the time and didnt have time to take off the tc.

Nice shots. I also like #2 the best, but there's not a dud amongst them.

Sorry Shaunus,

I couldn't stay - I had a big drive home across the Hay Plain. Took full advantage of the flattest place on Earth and let it rip. With the boot weighted by several cartons of Barossa Ribena it really held on wonderfully. Shame there were no bends to give it a work out on though - that came later.

Thanks,

Just a bit of amiable leg-pulling Shaunus.

Shaunus
Great shots. Like the contrast between the posh cars and more rustic surroundings. Very nice.
Was that 70-200 a VR NIkkor?
