I know it's a crappy looking night but I love the angle
It only rained here about 29 of the 31 days in July
Too bad you can't see the sign in the backround

The interior shot was Augusts AOTM because, to my understanding, it was bumped up a month. So technically, isn't this for Septembers AOTM?

How many pics can we put up??
alero168
08-03-2004, 06:04 PM
i think as many as you want obviously not a bazillion like i did b/c the admins will just pick one and put it up for voting but you can post several just to let ppl get a taste of it guess it works better to interior stuff to post more than one ;)

08-03-2004, 06:21 PM

/\/\/\ you got your car on the beach?!?!?!
In NJ that's a big fine, did you get stuck?
The pic is good but if you were closer to the car it would be a shoo-in for AOTM

Here's my comtribution. Man was I getting looks when I was trying to take this photo, I literaly pulled out the jack to line up the back tire tothe front tire and I wated for the jetskier to comeback around. All that and I forgot to rol up the windows :lol: :lol:

Some of the beaches you can drive on and some you can't. I didn't get stuck here but I have gotten stuck before.
I should have taken more but was doing other things and I was trying to get the background also (palm trees and house on stilts) but you can't see that anyways, oh well.

On the multiple entries, I like 168's last shot, Redog's first (although I am partial to lighthouses), Jab's 1st shot and Ill's 3rd photo. 2000's shot looks photoshopped and Sunday's shot is nice but... um, where's the beach?
Blueyez's sunset is as pretty as her name. (did I just say that? :eek: )
ptrudel
08-11-2004, 08:20 AM
:lol: it aint' photoshopped daytona...trust me...if i did photoshop it, u would know...its like i had said tho..that is our beach...basically swim in there and play around the falls

I know we did it all the time when we were down at Daytona Beach on spring break. We had to pay to drive on the beach, but I can't remember how much.

Just remember - if you do drive out onto the beach and get stuck in the sand, deflate the front tires. That'll help you get out. We have to have the trucks do that here in Jersey all the time.

Too bad you have that light pole sticking up behind your car. The photo would look better if you photochop it out of there.

you could easily back down that sidewalk dude.... it might be worth risking some stupid fine, and even if you were caught, you might not get fined. just tell him its for a magazine or something, haha.

i guess i'm definately out this month, the closest thing i have to water is the ohio river and i'd be too afraid of some 3 eyed fish with legs coming out and kicking my car while i'm taking the picture. i might have a chance if we do a snow theme!! or even better, the most women wearing practicaly nothing theme..school starts soon and i'm pretty close the the delta zetas, i'm sure they'd be in for it.

I'll have my pic submitted here in about an hour, I just need to get down to the beach and take a shot. Well I got a couple I can't decide on. The sea gull flying over the car in the second shot was a complete fluke, not planned at all.

voting is gonna be a pain in the arse again this month....lotsa nice pics. so-far, my favorites are:
Illarin's 2nd pic
Jabartram's 2nd pic ( the sky looks good/flows with the car well )
flalero's pic with the seagull
Gonna hit a local state park today with family and friends, and they got a small beach section on the lake ( It's cheesy, but it's better than nothing I guess ) maybe i'll get a pic today, who knows....
