Default P-Car pics at Mt. Rushmore

Some pics that I took of my dad and I driving the P cars to Mount Rushmore today. Thought a couple of you may like them. It snowed a little last night and didn't realize that until we were already on wet roads. The cars will be getting a bath tomorrow.

If there was any way to crop the pic just right the first pic is SOOOO calendar-worthy! :-)

Looks like a nice drive!

If someone really wanted to run a shot like that in a calender and needed it to be horizontal, I would reshoot it from a less elevated spot. Or consider cropping one of the similar shots that I have like it. Here is a sample. I don't like cropping any photos unless necessary. I would rather frame them correctly the first time I shoot them. Whos to say they won't run a vertical shot in a calendar anyway. I see it once in a while.

The photos are sensational and they have given me inspiration to take some photos of my roadster.

Maybe Porsche will see these and be inspired to give me a job. I am a freelance photographer but shoot mostly action sports and outdoor fine art. I took these because it sounded like a good time and great memories.

BTW, you really should straighten out the front lower bumper on the 964. It is quite easy and common:

Never noticed the front bumper. I will have to do that next summer when I get back from my winter tour.
