(Right after this, I was accosted by a security guard.)
I would of taken the pic also, definitely worth it!!
I have a rather cheap digi cam but I dont have many pics worthy to post just yet. Probably some pics I took when in Chicago a few weeks back, or some pics of a fishing trip up to northern Wisconsin. (caught a really nice tiger muskee, 45 inch 25lbs. w0000t!)

The pic is actually the second of two progressives I won on different Blazing 7 machines. Both were just a little over $1000 so I didn't have to fill out a W-2G!

I took this photo of my wife this past spring while we were vacationing in Key West. We took a boat out into the Gulf to watch the sunset and when I was going to put the camera away, I looked up and saw this view. I couldn't resist taking it and am very glad I did so. I love those photos when people don't know you're taking them. They look so much better and more natural.

Teh e-win: I love that photo you took. It is a very cool effect with the clouds how they disperse the light and make the whole sky look great. With mine, there weren't too many, so it lacks some color. I like!
Banshee: That is a really cool pic and I love the 3 sec shutter idea. You didn't use a tripod did you? Perhaps one day you head there with your camera and a tripod and get some of those pics with coasters going down main drop, demon drop, etc. Those would be great with all stationary items in perfect focus with just the movement being blurred. Nice!!
Needlefreak: Wow! That is really cool. Now, I don't want to read about you taking the rest of that photo and printing stuff up. LOL! That quality is really incredible.
MW: That is a pretty nice, crisp photo of that car. Did you get to drive it or did they just tease you? Looks very cool. Did you take any photos with some crazy angles or anything like that? Just curious. Sometimes those look pretty neat. :)
Burke: Congrats! I have never played slots or anything, but I figure with my luck at the scratch off lottery tickets, I shouldn't blow my money on those too. Heh heh heh...
Chris: Dude, that is a very nice shot! You can almost hear (not hear) how quiet it would be where you are. Everything is calm and serene and you can almost feel it with your photo. You really framed it well and made it look very professional. Great work!

I am not a pro, obviously, but I thought I would let you all know what I thought of yours. They all are pretty damn cool if you ask me. I can't wait to see more of others' photos. Keep em coming!! :D
Three pictures I took during a "road trip" all over the Southwest last September:
Rock formation in Arizona:

I love that rock formation photo. That is a very strong, yet simple photo. Very nicely done.

Heh, nope, no tripod. I actually took that while waiting in line so I wouldn't have been able to bring a tripod with me anyway.
One day next year I will stay all day just to take pictures, should get some nice ones...especially with the new 400+ foot coaster opening.

All the photos are great for sure but Banshees coaster and Burkes rock formation are really awsome..The rock has a wierd texture almost like a smooth cypress log..
Jumpinduo: Thx for the compliment!!...Ive been real happy with this cam.

I did indeed get to drive it ... and I gotta tell you ... it really is kewl to drive. It started life as a DX ... and with the mods they did to it ... it has much more punch to it now. They had a limited budget ($5,000.00 for mechanical and dressup) ... so considering that ... it came out rather nice. They are going to be putting a spoiler on the rear yet.
They are doing a new project at work now ... a 1992 Acura Integra GSR ... that is getting rebuilt ... and will have a supercharger and nitros on it. :D The owner is allowing them a budget of $20,000.00 on this one. I will post some pics of it along the way.
I did not get to take any crazy angled pics ... wish I had. Car is still around and I may try doing that.
Thank you for the comments ...
