Does a headstone/gravestone count? (Left side of photo)



If so, has your car in a photoshoot been done yet?

On a side note, that headstone actually belongs to the original owner of my car, and I was there cleaning the graves, so I wasn't doing anything stupid.

It sort of was, but could be done again. Might want to add photoshoot complete with watermark though.

What about your car with its 'opposition'.
For example: if you own an XY, a photo of it with a HQ. If you have an XR, take it with a HK. If you have a BA, it needs to be with a VY. An EL with a VS etc. Doesn't have to be exact, but it would be nice if they were matching 'eras'. Does that sound fair? I'm pretty sure most people would be able to achieve it.

Yeah man, exactly what I was hoping for! Cool photo, too - especially with the similar colours. It's like a real 'face off' sort of thing. Your turn, vztrt.

I definitely prefer Foreshore road, facilities, parking, ramp itself, no comparison. That pic was taken at the start of last year when the boat was brand new, at the time I hadn't yet tried any other ramps. These days I only really use Foreshore Rd for Botany Bay and Grays Point for the national park side.
