As people have noted, Florida is not the most interesting place for scenery.
This is mainly because it is so flat, and the few locations with scenic backgrounds are frequently crowded.



However, a good photographer makes use of all the natural resources an area has to offer.

So, if you aren’t nearby to any background scenery that is interesting enough, you can always place some beautiful local scenery in the foreground.



If you still need something a bit more scenic, then just ask her to get a bit more interesting.


Problem solved.

Haha, it's Arctic White, but low lighting reflection playing tricks on you. Thanks though

^ I'd would have bet a lot that it was CMG. Definitely has that gray-blue hue to it., especially in the block wall photos. At least to my eye.

Makes sense. It was low lighting, but blue sky in those shots. I could probably edit it out, but didn't mind it

Previous C7 on the Blue Ridge Pkwy.

Taking the Z06 up to the Smokies in September. Should get some good pics of "her" then.

I posted this photo in another thread last night after a day trip to Mt. Rainier, in the beautiful Pacific Northwest and since this is the Beautiful Scenery thread, I thought I’d share it here as well.

This is one of my favorites of my C6. They said you can't do the Cuervo, NM Cut Off (Part of old Route 66) in a Corvette. I called BS, and showed 'em. You just have to take care, and you will have a beautiful drive.

Very nice. I love that area of MI, and Traverse City. The ride up M-119 Tunnel of Trees is real nice, and a stop at Leggs in for some good Polish food and Beer. I grew up in Battle Creek MI. Left MI in 1981 but am back at least once a year if not more.
