3/10 - Driving SP

Audelia Rd.

Ok, so some people put on make-up while driving, others eat or drink or talk on the cell phone or play with the radio. I take
photos...what's the big deal? FYI - 84 degrees F here today...figured I would add that in since Lee and Sandy both commented on it.

BTW, the camera is on the tripod and I am using a remote release. Both hands were on the wheel when this was shot. I have to
give credit to Scott Coile for the tripod idea. I doubt I would have come up with that if I had not seen a shot he did from
the passenger seat where he referenced setting up the tripod.

And I still need a haircut.

The things we learn, and the things we do, for PaD. Good work!

It was 75 here today. I tried the SP while in the jeep but it didn't work out because I was trying to order at the window and talk on the cell phone and the dog kept getting in the way. Maybe I should have used a tripod. :-)
Good shot.

LOL...you're not a "true" PaDer unless you've taken an SP while driving! This is great, Bob. Happy haircut!

Safety first ;) OBTW I also attach the camera strap to the seat belt :) Nice one!

PS- I need a haircut too.

Anyway...nice SP Bob.

Sure, both hands were on the wheel when you took the photo. But what about when you were putting the camera on the tripod, getting the tripod settled, turning on the camera, adjusting all the settings, etc? Hmmmm? ;) Cool shot, though.

Brave shot to take, just trying to figure out how you explain this if you are pulled over by the local sheriff
