 I almost didn't get this one. I shot it over my lunch hour, and there was quite a bit of traffic. The G10 really sucks when it comes to a fast response when you press the shutter, so I was afraid I wouldn't be able to get an unobstructed shot of the car.

I had to put this into b&w. It was a cloudy day, and the sky was flat white. Ugh! The shot sucks in color.

This gal just cruised down the street. She had some sort of a heavy-duty sound system in the car, and you could hear her coming for a block.

Perfectly caught. And it MUST be in B&W - I can't see it any other way. Framed on the street just right. Everything just comes together in this!

Nice capture, this makes for a really good street photography. You composition is great, I wouldn't have guess that you didn't have much time for taking this picture.

The black and white choice is great, making me feel like putting on my own sunglasses in such bright light. Clouds more definite than haze would have added unnecessary complexity. Booming sound system subtle fit for a street whose Spanish name "Guerra" could translate as relating to "war".

I think that seeing that I might have been taking cover rather than taking pics lol.
Nice capture, I can almost here the boom system
