Default Last Night's Drive

It was a nice evening last night so I took my car out for a drive. Crusing down PCH in South Laguna Beach, the Ruby's restaurant was closing so I decided to take a few photos. I love driving the 55 at night.

Drop tops are best on a warm night

Great pics

New desktop background, by the way, replacing the cover of the Beach Boys Surf's Up

The picture is timeless! That's a great eye for photography. Of course the main object of the picture shows off your skill.

Perfect car for that restaurant as a backdrop, and no modern cars in the picture either really help make it better. Great shots, thanks for sharing..

Very nicely photographed! You're either a pro or could be.

This picture would easily win you C1 Of The Year.
