That's a photo shop pic. Snow on the ground, no roof and look at the rear tire. Flat on the bottom. Clever photo though.

Agree. Still, very funny shots. Wish I knew how to do that. Let's see some more, dealing with the pot hole problems all over.

I had photoShop on my old computer but never learned or played with it myself. My son did some remarkable stuff with it. My avatar was done with it, he removed trees, a sign, and parking lot stripes. Here's the original

Very nice picture. Love the clean lines of your C5, and wheels.

My wife has taken photography/photoshop classes, and is able to do some things like that. We have talked about me doing some classes. Now that I'm retired, I have time for things like this, and hope to sign up soon, to learn a little more about photography in the digital world.
