Leaning on the back of a Mustang's soft top on PCH is another story entirely... having the seatbelt buckled around my legs to keep me "safe" was quite an experience.

Anything for a shot, right?

Be sure you put "Assignment: Drive" on your entry or it won't count - and it is too good not to count! Great picture.

Hey Jax, Welcome... Exif is usually embedded in the photo and I do check each one for the competition, If you post your photo on flickr, the exif is usually on the right of the page under "more properties" if you've saved it with exif info. That said, if yours was taken pre- start date, it's not eligible for the competition anyway, but you can post it for the assignment.

Best,
Sime.

Hello,

To get the EXIF of a particular image you can use a firefox addon from here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3905

That is what I use, and I find it to be the most convenient and easy to use.

Only the pictures that are taken within the assignment dates mentioned by the moderator, are valid pictures approved for the assignment.

Some people use Cars, some trams and others anything that can get the forward.

Done by 40 year old film camera Practica IV. (and i did not have the settings, but i think it was 1/50 of the sec f/11)

Thank You Nuno I did try to adjust the angle but for some reason the gears in the back look crooked so I left it this way. Tought it looked better this way.
