Sugar Land TX

Google's C.C.C.C. (CHEVY COBALT CAMERA CAR)
Taken through my office window.
I grabbed the camera and ran to the window to get a pic of the Google Streetview Camera Car as it passed through the neighborhood.
Unfortunately, the autofocus grabbed the yellow taxi instead.
No time for a second shot. Dang.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Still an interesting photo. You could claim you wanted to show motion.

I almost always have my camera on spot focus so it focuses on what I want.

It's quite different to what I imagined it to be!

Google's camera car went pass our place a few years ago - and it's good to see out house and the beach too, but the council workers had dug a big hole on the front grass and it looks rather messy.

I saw in one of their photo, a guy making a finger at the camera, I hope I can remember to stop there this supper and do the same to my camera :) One thing I find odd, I have relatives travelling troughtout the US in winter time, there is no place where their photos are clear, some people say it because they are afraid of terrorists. I don,t know why they even bother to do that in the US since the photo quality renders them useless.

You caught it,

But it works for blur. I think it's a great shot with the focus on the taxi and other cars. It makes it seem the CCCC car is the only one moving.

Well it is still a cool shot, Lynn! I have often wondered how the photos were taken.

Cool shot anyway Lynn. There is one parked in our neighborhood. I've been wanting to check out the camera.
