Wish I had 1/2 of xstart's photography skills... But here's one from my run last Saturday. I think what I like most is that this is less than 1/2 of the line.

 

Great shot. I hope that your run was another successful one for you. It looks like it was. Looked like a great day too!

 

I cleaned the R53 last weekend and drove around a li bit and took a couple pix.. they're just from my phone but I thought they looked pretty cool..

Battleship Cove in Fall River, MA with the Charles Braga Bridge and the USS Massachusetts in the background..


Portas da Cidade (gates to the city) A gift from the Portuguese Government to our city.. a replica of the gates they have in Ponta Delgada in the Azores islands..

 

 

I tried to get as many as I could while we were there but there were just far too many Mini's to fit in to one shot I still have to edit that particular shot but I did a few others so far. The cruise was a ton of fun and we can't wait to do it again next year

here's one of Kelly's JCW:



and the gallery so far, there will be a bunch more in the next week or so:

Awesome shots, Jon. I'm super jealous... That light blue R53 - custom painted? I don't recognize that color. And wait 'til Kelly sees that shot. She's gonna flip!

 

Thanks Walter.

I'm not sure about that light blue one but like you, I haven't ever seen one that shade. It's basically a Gulf Racing themed car so I'm going to say it was re-sprayed in that specific color. I do love that car though, it's such a mean looking Mini and from what I hear, the owner beats on it daily

We need to set up a little shoot one day this summer since we're not too far from each other.

 

edited a few more from the MTTP cruise, finished up my set now, they're all posted on my website http://www.jschusteritsch.com/mttp2013

here's a couple...
hey I know this guy!

 

rooftop garage pic.. Chinatown, Boston

 

Very nice...but where did you find 4 consecutive parking spaces in Boston?? :-p

 

 

Man, I look angry. The GP shot is fantastic and now Kelly and Matt are going to flip - awesome shot of their MINIS!!!

Would love to get together for a photo shoot - I'll get in touch with you mid-August since I'll be out west most of the summer.

 

Hey Albie...where you goin'...West that is??!!

 

Wow, these are really good!

 

Thanx haha yeah it was weds night.. not busy time I guess.. lol

 

Trip of a lifetime, RJ!! From the Atlantic to the Pacific - not in the MINI, though... Suburban (Gigantibeast), a 28' camper, 3 adults, 4 kids, 7 mountain bikes. Here are our destinations:

Garden of the Gods
Mesa Verde
Grand Canyon
Bryce Canyon
Zion
Lake Tahoe
Redwood Forest (Crescent City)
Painted Hills
Craters of the Moon
Yellowstone
Thermopolis
Devils Tower
Badlands Area
Little House on the Prairie

Wish I could do this trip one day in the MINI. My long term dream would be to tour the country with the MINI in a toy hauler, go on every run that exists in the U.S. and see every single one of you SOB's!

 

Some awesome shots here. I was thrilled to see a few shots of my ride in the album - thanks to Kelly tagging me in your FB post. Using the one with my rear GoBadge as my FB profile pic. Thanks!

yea their cars were just begging for a shot together. Have fun out west, I'll be here for as long as I can tell so no rush

Thanks!

we were admiring the badges, and that badge holder, for long enough that I decided I needed a shot with it in there definitely the coolest badge holder I've seen. Glad you like the shots.

 

Took a picture,.

Too bad all I had was my phone..

 

Any more info about this one? Those look like BMW BBS "style 5" wheels and they look quite amazing on there curious about the fitment/etc

 

What can you tell me about those gorgeous wheels? They almost look like the Yokohama Kreutzer Vi in a custom white.

 

Someone else asked about them on my website and she said they were "Cross" wheels that were originally silver before being custom painted. I think they look awesome on there.

 

Ah, well I wish there were more details, Google doesn't help.

Can you tell me if they are 17s or 18s? I can usually tell but the first pic makes me think 18s while the second looks like 17s.

Thanks for the response!
