Gravenge portraits

Post by driverjohn2005 »

Took these a few weeks back. Didn’t want to post them because it was a surprise I was bringing her to WCBF. Pics are a bit blurry; my camera doesn’t like low light (Pics were taken at dusk.) So here are a few of my now rather rarely seen Bonneville 

A simple $20 ebay tripod, or even a step ladder would have made those shots brilliant ;)

the 3.2MP woulda been fine for forum posting, the tripod would do wonders :)

In any case, it looks yummy!
