Ok, I started to bed a few minutes ago, and I SUDDENLY inspiritation struck! Before I knew it, my camera jumped up in my hand, and I passed the tray where my key stays. I decided to take some "night" pics. Now, I have never done this before, Those of you who have, please give me some pointers. I'm sure I have done it wrong, or not as right as it could be.

I think the yellow green was an Isotope. Almost looks like it should glow in the dark right?

About the night pics, use a tripod and no flash. Keep the pics coming!

Ernie is beautiful!! Those second rims you are talking about getting (is it wheels or rims? Obviously I'm new to this)...are those "BRAVO"? I was looking at some on the VW website and those were my favorite...also is the name of one of my Jack Russell Terriers. That will be my next big purchase.
Ernie looks very well cared for. Your monster mats are so CLEAN. I bought some a month ago and they really need to be shaken out.

Ellen, yes the car did have the "glow in the dark" look. Now I'm just not sure which color it is!

Thanks for the tripod tips! And the flash. I will do some more soon.

Thanks! The monster mats are hard to keep clean, but that dirt they catch isn't getting to my carpet! As far as the rims, i'm not following you. Are you talking about the rims I have now? These are called "Force" rims, and they are my favorites!!!

I had some time on my hands while in downtown Louisville, yesterday, and decided to snap a few pics around the mighty Ohio River...

1. This is just down the street from famous Louisville Slugger field, next is in front of the "Belle of Louisville" riverboat.
