Default Photos of my 2005 LS430 UL

After owning my 2005 LS430 Ultra Luxury w/PCS for about 2 months, I just can't stop taking pictures and trying to capture my enthusiasm for this car.

Any tips on photography is always appreciated. Enjoy...

I just tinted the front two windows with a company called Advantage (film manufacturer w/ lifetime warranty). The darkness is illegal in Alabama, the rear windows are even darker.

I'm a sucker for picture threads.

Nice ride. Don't forget to post the next picture where someone leaves a note on your windshield about taking up three parking places. I wonder if a polarizing filter would get rid of the window reflection from taking the picture inside (without compromising the reflections on the car.)

i have pondered getting some filters for my camera. Also looking into getting a wide-angle lens too. Could make for some other nice pics!
