Still some very nice sightings. I love the 512 TR and the f355 GTS. Though I really like the 512 TR, I'm not really a fan of the Testarossa. Partly cause of the weird position of the driver's side mirror on the early ones (and the absence of a rear view mirror on the passenger's side), like shown in your pic.

As always, interesting cars out there! Can I ask you why you use the flash even in sunlight?

i don't know much about photography at all tt. I've been playing around with some of the settings, but i'm not really sure what would work best. As for the flash i forgot to turn it off. any advice would be appreciated.

Oh well the advices are always the same: flash always off. You turn it on only when you really are desperate! "Crappy" cameras sometimes already need it with cloudy weather to avoid blurry pics, but with so much sunlight like in your shots, it's for sure not needed and the effect on turn indicators are a bit annoying IMO. Also abuses your batterly a lot!
Advices to avoid blurry pics are to always check shutter speed (possibly above 1/50 sec if you are like me), do not use the LCD screen by keeping the camera far away from your body but use the viewfinder: the camera beeing held right against your face and not with straight arms will move a lot less. If not enough, try to use the landscape.. little walls and so on where you could put the camera.
