^^^ thank you for posting that, but I must question the ability of the British to build it. With their track record for quality and reliability, it is entirely probable they will be building Hydrogen Bombs, in more ways than one!:eek:

Those are absolutely gorgeous Steve. My son's been to Ireland twice and he says it is the most beautiful place on earth next to Italy.Quote:

I know. EVERYONE seems to want to shoot in RAW anymore and fix everything in photoshop. I'm still old school and shoot in jpeg and try to get as much right as possible right out of the camera. Crop, sharpening, highlights and maybe some saturation is all I generally try to do...IF...I get it right when I press the shutter. I will certainly try and fix a poor photo if it is worth it but I try to do as little PP as possible.Quote:

I've been considering shooting raw just because I can never seem to get the White Balance right.
You can adjust white balance in jpeg as well. If I am shooting action I like to shoot jpeg over raw just because the camera will store more pictures that way and I don't have to wait for it to finish writing. The only processing I do is similar shack, some sharpening adjusting my white balance and maybe some noise reduction if needed.
I have a 1994 XJ6 (1994 was the last year Jaguar made them before Ford) with 160,000 miles on it. This car is in great shape and just passed smog here in California. It has the original trans and engine. The only work I've done is had the head rebuilt at 100k because it blew a head gasket. Other than that its been reliable as hell.Quote:

A Kentucky native I was really good friends with saved and saved and saved to go to Ireland. He finally went for 3 weeks. When he came back he was pissed and disappointed.Quote:

From the Ironman over the weekend.

zingo Is that you or did you shoot it?
My wife actually shot it and it's one of our friends; but I'm looking toward the 2011 Ironman...

I'v run a couple of marathons Thats about as much pain as I could endure. I was 58 when I did the first one as I just had to prove to myself that I wasn't too old and feeble to do it. So good luck on the Ironman. Really I envy you.Quote:

Ford bought Jag in 1989, but had no direct impact upon Jaguar until 1993, with the introduction of a completely revamped electrical system. The XJ range had almost no direct Ford input until the 2004 X350 cars. The aluminum monocoque structure used in those sedans was to have also spawned the next gen Town Cars.Quote:

Nice car. I've always like those and they seem to be a spouse friendly car.
I've loved every second of my Subaru ownership. Enjoy it.
My wife got us a room on the top floor of the Westin for my Birthday. We had a great View of Mount Rainier.

I love that Hotel. Last time we were there, we had a room on that same side with that same view! It's a great place.
