NYCO's '06 Boosted Blue Betty

HID reverse lights? damn...why? lol seems overkill...but i can't say anything i guess with the overkill i have on the truck

LED is perfect.. the swing arm hardware kills my output of them tho

 

thanks

been meaning to swing by the shop one of these days...been crazy busy running all around the rockies tho... starting on a 1500 mile weekend tonight

 

wtf Bob..

how are you getting to do all these road trips lately!

I hate you.. haha

 

i hate myself

i need some time off to relax...or at least get up to the mountains to ride!

 

Do you not already have rock lights in the back of your truck?

I have a set of crappy lights hooked up under the bed of my truck (where the spare tire used to be). Pointed them backwards and wired them into my reverse lights. It would be nice to have them housed in the bumper, but under the bed they're very protected.

 

i have little LED pods under there, but they don't really shine that far...does ok for rock light purposes, but not enough to project back to count as a backup light..

 

So

I haven't even seen a mountain in 3 months..talk about having with drawls..im used to seeing mountains almost 360º everyday haha

 

well who's the idiot who chose st louis?

 

i know not who this idiot is..

 

i mean...i'm making plans to move away from CO, but at least my sights are set to live near mountains still

 

Well that was definitely a wiser choice then me..haha

Will be interesting to see trip reports from that far East. You rarely see much i feel like. Nothing like our west anyways..

either that or i just don't look there haha

 

i'll be doing a lot of exploring up there, so you'll see a good amount hopefully...between canada and maine, there is a lot of open space to be explored

 

Oh hadn't even thought of Eastern Canada..that i would like to see.

 

What's that... a T.a.C.O. gathering in the northeast? Count me in!!!!!

 

teaser

 

Regular eye feast there! Nice. I need a wide angle sooo bad!!!

 

loving photomatix!

trying not to go overboard on the effects...just make things pop

 

love how the gooseneck panoramic turned out...

that's 3 photos stitched together with 3 photos +/- 2 stops (9 total photos)

should have hiked down to the next ledge tho

 

Yea man glad we got that figured out with ur cam

For future reference Bob I found that a 3 shot hdr looks pretty much the same as a 9 shot (if you've got the time and patience do a 9 tho). All mine now are just 0 and plus minus 2.

I hear ya on the overboard... I tend to leave the 0 exposure up and edit the hdr next to it so I can keep myself in check.

Edit: i just realized what you said about "3 shots" stitched panorama and each one was 0 plus minus 2... Nevermind what I said about the 9 exposures for one shot...

 

that was 3 HDR photos stitched...but i stitched the -2 together, then 0 then +2...then combined for the HDR..
