Hehe Alec I think it's a girl!

No, the girl's sitting on the chassis and, as Wisp said, it's the Mobi phone logo that's on the panels.

Name your weapon! .... Atoms at dawn!

Nope, the German dealer adds the side scoops (with nothing in them )

but in this one there is a chargecooler in the sidepods!

cool!  any other modifications to the engine?  you running more HP then?

2 settings, 340 BHP or 400 BHP....

These photos were taken in a very remote location near where I grew up in Wisconsin.  No matter how far I've traveled, I don't think I've ever come across a view this beautiful.  Only recently did I remember this spot from when I was a child and I'm glad I finally got around to taking pics of the Atom there.




These 800x600 resizes don't do the photos justice.  View these and ten others from this location in my website album here in MUCH higher resolution and quality.

I stuck two other shots in the Non-Track photo competition section as well.

Looks like a great location. I have a similar memory/setting from riding enduros in Sam Houston National Forest. Those are Terrific shots. The last one has a real ethereal quality.    Is that all natural lighting or a little tweeking in photoshop? Wait.... just went to the site... Single or multi frame HDR?  Also Tripod or handheld? First time I tried it was with Peters car last year and a remote release on a tripod REALLY helps keep the edges. I'm still playing with HDR, for most people online in those topics it's a love it or hate process. Going to try a few more attempts at AtomFest II if possible. Great shots, I'll have to snag a couple for my HDTV's screen saver/slide show when it's on the computer input..

Lighting is all natural and I didn't do any image manipulation other than what the HDR software does on one of its more mild effect settings.  In retrospect, I probably should have used the camera's manual white balance setting (with a white card or something) as all the green surroundings did appear to skew the overall tone a bit.  I used auto-exposure bracketing of 2/3 stop if I remember correctly, with 3 frames for each shot.  Cam was on a tripod at its lowest ISO and using the smallest aperatures that I could for decent depth-of-field.  Nothing too special for the camera either - it's amazing what a middle-of-the-line digital cam can spit out these days if you read the manual and know how to use it.
