Testing new lens on my 'dirty' hooptie

Out today working, taking photos of a new listing just outside Frederick. I'm heading to Big Sky, MT for a week w my girl to celebrate my bday tomorrow AM....borrowed/rented a fantastic lens from a friend and wanted to test it out.

Nikon 80-200mm f2.8....love this thing!!!

Rained yesterday and I drove the car anyway, I think the newly welded MAF housing has made a huge difference in the way the car is performing, pulling to redline like a bat out of hell....SMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTH.

anywho, here are the practice shots. Cant wait to use this out west!!!!! :redspot










took this while talking with my client. Handheld w no VR in a fairly dark room.......gotta love f2.8 :buttrock

cool lens indeed. What kind of BBS are those? I've seen them on a e39 m5 a few months ago and they looked beautiful in person.

is highly saturated........autotuned them on Lightroom, always seem to turn out that way.

BBS RC-J.....super rare and light forged 1piece BBS. You will see RC's more commonly, but you have to look real close at them to see if they have the 'forged' stamp to know if they are RC-J's.

18x9" - 17.6lbs I believe.

Ah, so i'm guessing the RC is cast and RC-J is forged?
