Like the title says, post up a picture that you took yourself. It doesn't have to be Pontiac related, as long as you were there and took the picture yourself. Being a picture you took yourself, tell us the reason or story behind the picture. I'll start with a picture of my car, and the engine that was removed from it in 1987. This was the first thing I did to the car after buying it for $1500.

I took this probably ten years ago. It was taken in Yorktown, Va. near the battle fields.
It was too nice to not take a picture of.

During a trip to South Korea about 10 yrs ago, I was taking pics of some of the buildings off the beaten path. Noticed the little kid in a stroller, "parked" by the curb, and no one else around!
The guy driving me around didn't want to get involved, but thankfully after 5 or so minutes, someone came to retrieve the illegally parked toddler!

Art Deco style in South Beach. Taken a few years ago…

I took this a few days ago at the Coronado Hotel in San Diego with my cell phone. A little girl ice skating at the beach in San Diego. She's looking at a Falcon that was there to keep the seagulls away.

Nice catch, especially on ultra light gear...I'm floating in the middle of the Currituck sound adjacent to dayboard 76...just had a bite but missed it.

I like to capture DRIVEN old cars under a blanket of snow. I use a 1962 Canon Populaire (bought new in Okinawa) and either 100 or 200 speed film. My goal is to put together a collection and show them at a "gallery night" (one of these years :-/ ).

Half-Inch Stud 01-01-2017 05:44 PM

Wow, the snow covers the topside patina perfectly.

Here's mine from 1968 while visiting relatives in Oklahoma.

When we brought home my GN my younger daughter immediately fell in love (because it's not as loud as the other cars and sounds like a jet) and it was in Fast and Furious 4. This was her "Letty" pose because Letty's always mad....

Lightning Strikes at Santa Rosa NM...
 
Since photography is a hobby of mine, I'll try to contain myself from posting a few 100...lol!

This summer, we took a trip to Texas. We were camped at an RV park in Santa Rosa NM having dinner. Seeing a storm brewing, I woofed down dinner and grabbed my camera gear and headed off (walking). Got several lightning strikes and decided it was time to seek shelter. Got disoriented but thankfully the campground host was driving around and picked me up and drove me to our RV.

My favorites and me after the fact. Technically I didn't take the last picture of me, but it helps tell the story. :D :rain:

I guess I got my car for a steal then. I bought mine for $500 around 1988.
