Nice ... How does the car handle with the Skinny's up front in the snow?

Lol...wouldnt really know...that's the only snow she's seen (it looks a lot more than it was). She doesn't go anywhere in the rain, either....hydroplanes @ 30mph with very little water on the road...

What ISO and shutter speed did you use?

To be honest with you, I'm not sure. I am verrrry new to being behind the lens, and have a LOT to learn. I used the auto setting for most of them, but used the portrait setting for a few, and a landscape setting for one or two. I know the camera has a difficult time with snow (or so I've read on the net).

Just got a basic intro to photog. book from my step dad, so I'm hoping to learn more the summer! I'm all ears to any critques, suggestions, advice, etc.

First picture:

# Exposure Time = 1/125 second ===> 0.008 second
# Lens F-Number / F-Stop = 40/10 ===> ƒ/4
# ISO Speed Ratings = 160

Second picture:

# Exposure Time = 1/640 second ===> 0.00156 second
# Lens F-Number / F-Stop = 35/10 ===> ƒ/3.5
# ISO Speed Ratings = 400

You can download an exif viewer addon for firefox, I use 'exif viewer 1.52'

Most cameras do because it messes with the white balance, but your pictures came out well in that regard.

Nice car, greeneyedgirl.. and nice camera too. The Canon SX20 is a great DSLR-like camera. My advice would be to get used to shooting on full manual mode. You'll learn so much and you can apply the knowledge to newer cameras as well as film cameras. A good book to read is 'Understanding Exposure' by Bryan Peterson - at least that's what everyone says. I read it recently and it's pretty useful I think.

Looks like the weather is as nice in Michigan as it is here in the Cleveland area.

This would be a great week for some shots at that location...I know exactly where that is...I work in the D at Henry Ford Hospital...off west grand and pallister....if you still have your car I would be interested in meeting for some pics!

Just noticed the replies! Right now I don't have the car...she's getting her work done. I probably won't have it for about a month. After it's all done along w/ the new paint job, I'll try and organize a shoot.

This can give us some time for planning I guess, not to mention warmer weather!

...and I think I've convinced the fiance to let me get my obnoxious pink and black paint job that I've always wanted! muhaha!
