Halfspec, your pics are sheer pornography! Are you using a special type of lens/lighting? I like the effect on your pictures.

Thank you. Most of the pictures simply make use of HDR photography which just means I setup the camera to take a burst of shots with varying exposure times then use software to take the best of each photo and combine it into a composite. Even iphones have a basic HDR function built in nowadays. It's just an easy way for an amateur photographer to get the exposure right on a shot. Any skill that shows through in my pictures are directly credited to ZoomZoom's coaching

^Amazing how much more sleek the FD looks when compared to the NSX

Speaking of ZoomZoom, this is one of my all-time favorite pictures taken of my FD being that it's my favorite city in the background less than a week before I moved away:
