If it is any consolation, your pictures were really nice. So, sell your Iphone!

I was kinda hoping if you liked them you would let me know if the quality wasn't up to it.. Then I'd have gotten the decent camera out and re-shot it..

iPhones are lovely you just have to accept that cameras are for proper photography and phones are for making calls and therefore not the best at being cameras!

Offtopic. The autum pic of my car that made it to the calendar was taken with Nokia N95

On a bright day they do take decent pictures...

It seems the iPhone camera really isn't up to the task... And please don't shoot me

iPhone camera is only 2megapixel... Which is a bit of a muck up
by apple!

Good excuse to go buy a nice camera tho!

It is an Italian Flag....my Grandfather was Italian.

Tutto Italiano e in cuore !! Is that correct ...my Lingua Italiano is not very good !!

Cheers

Stigo ( my Italian cousin)

Ahahah!

I am very pleased that you are devoted to Italy as your grandfather!!
If you are "All Italian in your heart" you should get a nice trip (of course with your 480!

) in this great country...so you could give me English lessons, and I could give you Italian lessons!

Ciao Stig!

I know the calendar has been made and everything, but I couldn't find a general "Your 480 Photos" thread. Finally got some night shots taken of mine...

Buonasera il conte,

Grazie mille per la tua invito........forse in futuro.

Chiedo scusa!! I missed your reply.

I'm not sure that my 480 would make it to Roma....who knows !!

Looks like your English is infinitely better than my Italian ....

Ciao,

Stigo

I'll second that!

David · Post by **David** » Sun Nov 23, 2008 8:10 pm

This is my 480 in the condition she was in when I bought her back in April...

Now Christened 'Sharky', here she is after about 5 months of TLC...

And again...

I'd like to think I made a big improvement, but that could be just because of the many many hours I spent on things like removing glue from the doors, etc. Neutral observers may not see much difference - comments welcome!

Looking good David.

I bought them on the internet, I don't know exactly the origin but I was told that a guy called Ronald, adminstrator from the Belgium 480 forum had made them himself. (quite some time ago?) I do not know if this story is 100% correct, again I was told..

@ Ettore, Very impressed pal, contemporary, minimal, stylish, love the colours you've used. Very slick, I'd be happy to publish it if I was still in graphic design

Great pics Yossarian, you should add them to the "Volvo 480's at night" thread!
