Looks sweet man and congrats on the purchase I'm sure you'll love it! I just got a D60 a few weeks ago and am amazed at how good of a photographer it makes me look like

i would spend alot of time in aperture priority mode. very fun to mess around in and try different settings out. i love shooting up close playing the with aperture. ahh cant wait till spring comes around, so i can go out and shoot. i would also suggest researching HDR photography, some of the coolest and most beautiful pics you will ever see!!

defiantly get a polarized filter if you haven't done so already. night and day!!!!

thanks so much guys! The whole goal with this car was to not overload it with aftermarket exterior parts to get attention, but to tastefully put together pieces that "fit" together. I think the goal has almost been achieved. Maybe a full big brake kit will top it all off

all the photos you took are freakin awesome. I would have to say though the engine bay pic is def. a favorite.

Wallpaper quality photos too. I'd print some of those out and hang them up! I'm jealous though, i don't have much to take with the Nikon OR the Canon. My near bone stock mustang wont show for much.
