Camping with the G55

I picked up a G55 2003 model recently (350hp version) and went on holiday with it in Spain and Portugal with the better half. I thought I'd share the visuals:

That last picture looks amazing, like its real but not real. Almost like it is a painting.

The Netherlands, Amsterdam to be specific. We drove 4,000+ miles in a month in that G-wagon to France, Spain, Portugal and back again.

I used my Canon 50D with EFS 17-85mm lens.

Thanks. I experimented a bit this holiday, and that specific picture is a so called HDR image composed of three different exposure photo's for a bigger dynamic range. Exposure times of up to 30 seconds because there was close to no light.

Edit: And one more.
