It's like any city. It's got its really nice parts, and it's got its not so nice parts of town. The best thing about Houston is the people. Thanks again, guys. Yes, the D90 does HD video (720p at 24 fps).

If you guys meet up, let me know. I've been an avid reader of my D5000 for dummies book so I'd like to try out my photography "skills". I’ve been messing around with the stop motion feature, too, which is very cool. |

Thanks! Btw, I've always loved those moving shots that nMd took of your car and I've wanted to get some of mine for awhile now. The guys I ran into yesterday clearly had some experience with rolling shots and took some amazing pics of my car. I can't wait to post some of them up.

Nice pics Tom. I like #7. Funny, I was going to head downtown Sunday and snap some shots too. I had the location of your first pic in mind. I really wanted the skyline in the background. Plus Houston has one of the nicest skylines in the country IMO. I thought underneath Enron Circle might be a cool spot too. Anyway, skipped all that to go house shopping with the gf. I didn't get any pics, but I did have fun driving all over town on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Maybe I'll get around to pics next weekend. Tag along if you have time. You can log some extra D90 practice hours taking pics of my car too

That last picture is worthy to be in next years M3Post calendar. the D90 is sweet and your 18-200 is a great walkaround lens. Car looks great!

I love the Houston skyline. The Heritage Plaza building is my favorite skyscraper, period. Great job on the photo shoot! Almost makes me miss university days. . . almost.

Where are you looking for a house? The wife and I are starting to look around for our second house on the west side of town or in the heights. We'll probably keep and rent out our current house. Quote:

Loving it so far. You should meet up with Kyle and me -- maybe we can get some nice rolling shots.

I do not really have a set area in mind. My objective is to find something with good situs value that I can either fix up and rent out or fix up and call home and hold onto as an investment for a few years. I found a pretty cool house a block from the Galleria. It needs a little work IMO but the location and shell are great. It has a surprisingly large, shaded backyard and a view of Transco Tower at night. The large two car garage is also a plus. Once I manage the funds there will be plenty of room for the CGT

Best one of the bunch from a pure photography standpoint. Not sure if you planned the blues, etc. but it came out very nice with the lighting and all.

ha, I think 5 years with a manual tranny as a DD was plenty of practice.

It's okay, Kyle, I hear the CGT 6MT is very forgiving.

Dangerous question. I've been in discussions about possibly adding a supercharger. Other than that possibility, I'm done. I really don't want to take the modding too far, although I'm sure some would say that I already have.

I have been doing isolated left leg squats every day since the car was introduced in 2004. It is now 2010. I'm insanely disproportionate and daily life is a challenge, but I hope to be prepared for the CGT when it arrives.
