It's a brand new day! A day in which you can:

-Repost a previous post! :-P
-Do donuts in your front yard!
-Abuse tilt-shift photography!
-Wish you had snow in your area!
-Despondently shake your head at us poor Southerners who think snow is fun

And most importantly...

-Wish 505Turbeaux a happy birthday by making today B3 Audi (1986-1991 Audi 80 and 90) Thursday!

That's a cool picture. At first glance I thought it was a miniature.

Or a tilt shift. Yes.

I knew there was a term for it.

I wish my tilt shift pics looked that good. I still can't seem to get the miniature effect just right.

You have to start with the right composition first. Medium-to-long range, at least a couple reference subjects (car, tree, small tree) for contrast, and you have to fiddle with the actual effect quite a bit. This is my first one that actually turned out with a halfway decent miniature effect, so don't feel bad.

I used to live in New England and I still miss the snow.

my father had a very nice Audi 4000 back in the 80s, because it was the perfect combo of the rally driver he was in his youth, and the corporate exec he had become. I love a boxy audi and the 80/90 era is about as far back as I'd be willing to go... and now I am off to craigslist! mmmm, quattro!

*note pic of boxy audi may or may not be 80/90 era but is still a great pic for today's theme

i agree its fun when it falls and 4 hours after, but then the shit turns brown, people become crazy and forget how to drive, workers put two inches of salt on every street and you can't tell the real color of 1 car out of 2

mmm, I love white cars, and if I recall these have a nice pearl white. Manual and quattro, with the newer revision bumpers I prefer.
