Definitely a JEEP thing! POTD 2.23.07

My DH got a new job and with it, comes a company car. We are blessed to able to choose from several different makes/models. Let me just say, I grew up with used cars all my life, so this was my first time to test drive at a dealership. It's great going in, not having to haggle. Once we finished driving the JEEP Liberty, our search was over-definitely the car (JEEP) for us! We liked the idea of off-roading, getting dirty and yet, the classy profile of the Liberty. I laughed today as we went for our walk...our little stroller for DS is made by JEEP, a sign we made the right decision. It was incredibly muddy as the snow has only recently melted away, so even DS is off-roading in his stroller, navigating through the terrain. We're training him really early as he's only 10months old. Oh, and did I mention we got to choose the color too...JEEP GREEN! If we're going to do this JEEP thing, we're doing it all the way! Natural light, ISO 200, 3.5, AV mode. Used Indie Rich for this one, then lightened a tad with curves and burned the shadows at 18%. Gotta love PS.

hey, congtrats! I remember everything about my first new car...including that I had to get stick, as I couldn't afford to "upgrade", even though I had no idea how to drive manual! My roomate had to drive me home- then stopped in a mall parking lot to teach me how to drive home! LOL, it was great!
Best of luck with the new car- and~ lol~ I like your photo :0

Great shot. Love all the texture. Congrats on the new Liberty. My DS has one and loves it. His is black because he's just a cool guy ya know (or so he thinks).

We're a JEEP family, too! Congrats! Love this shot--the composition is great as is the texture. I think it's a really neat shot! Something about it just calls out to me... Nice job.
