Taken on Sunday morning in route to the Seahawks/Cardinals game in Phoenix. Not a bad game but my team lost but thats why the game is played. Overall a great ride to the game as we are staying in Phoenix for the night. Only complaint is that the stereo is not loud enough with the top out and the nav unit (see below) however when its 55 degrees out the heated seats are nice so yes the 1SB comes through again
I only saw one Vette and it was on older one, perhaps a late 50's or early 60's and I think I saw a wave but I was not sure as my wife and I were arguing the navigation information (it was wrong and I tried it much to my wifes dismay as she lived in the Phoenix area for 26 years) and I ate humble pie which does not taste well.

Thanks, guys. 
I know it's far from perfect, but I guess my attitude with these types of photochops is that normally no one would ever be looking that closely at the background detail, thus a little "slop" there is acceptable... if it was a photochop to the car itself, that would be a different story 
... also a function of the amount of time and effort you wish to spend working on it... I obviously blasted through this like lightning... Vasta, good eye, I indeed erased the sign and car because they were bugging me... but the trash can had to go for sure. I couldn't stand to see a Machine Silver Metallic C6 and Velocity Yellow trash can in the same photo.

Thanks for the photshop, of course it does look a heck of a lot better, we were in a hurry and oddly enough at that time cars were already pulling into the overlook and I did not notice the can until it was too late. Originally I wanted to wait for the sun to rise but I did not want to be a parking lot hog. I know I did ramble as it was a long day but just to recap this was the longest trip that we took in the car and even if the Seahawks lost it was a blast. I will try and post up some pictures of the bridge construction which is impressive, I had heard that once its done it will be the tallest one in the U.S.
