Default The Scion Life: 2007 Year In Review (no 56k's)

On behalf of all of us here at....wait........I don't have a staff, team, or a club. Sorry. Just got caught up in the moment. Anyhow, 2007 was quite a year in the Scion scene for me. As I clear my hard drive to get ready for 2008, this past year seems like a blur when I see how many events I've shot. I just wanted to take the time to thank the clubs, dealerships, Scion Corp., Regional, Dan Rocha, Turn 3, autoimportcraze.com, and the individuals who have trusted me to cover their events and shoot their cars. Asides from the terms butt hurt, flame, droppin' a deuce, and even text messaging, I've learned so much in 2007 thanks to you all.

I've snapped my shutter over 30,000 times this year and not everyone sees what I shoot. So before I archive 2007 off my hard drive and on to CD's, I wanted to share some of my shots. Some are my best shots of that day, while others I thought were funny, and some just had to be shared. I don't have time to include narration so I'm hoping the picture tells the story. I tried to keep all the events at a maximum of 20 shots per event. Even with that, I needed to seperate this YIR into 4 parts. I'll try to remember to include the date and event before each set of shots. I'm hoping to post 1 part up every week of January. As you will notice, I did a lot of coverage for SE towards the beginning of the year. As the year progressed, I started changing my coverage style to include more of the event as a whole rather than just focusing on the happenings of SE. So if you have any issues with them, please don't make any negative remarks and ruin this thread.

Again, I'd like to thank this particular community for allowing me to capture your moments, preserve your memories, and your history. BTW, I tossed in a couple of personal events I shot. ha.

JANUARY
01-01-07 Rose Parade


















01-20-07 Scion Evolution's Kick Off
















FEBRUARY
02-09-07 Verone's and DJ Icy Ice's B-day







02-17-07 Auto Crave











MARCH
03-01-07 Miss Triniti's Performance
www.trinitiswebsite.com







03-11-07 Quality Toys Show












03-11-07 Longo Scion's M&G (yes the same day as event above)
Yes, this was a difficult shot. Don't ask how I did it.











03-24-07 HIN Night Shift
See anything wrong with this first shot?























03-24-07 Chapter 11 Release Party (Yes, same day as event above. No more 2 event days for me.)








03-30-07 Scion Summit Invasion









Next week, part 2?

Thanks Tev. TORC was in the second quarter of last year and those pics should be up sometime on Friday.

Ummm....ummmmm.......sorry T, I don't think I had any shots of your car at last years TORC. I was practicing with SE's in-house model for the better part of the day. This year yes? lol

So what you're saying is that you are used to having strangers stare at you with lust in their eyes? I hate when that happens to me. Damn my life as a window tinter.

I can't very well call you a bastard. I'll just stare at you without the lust.

Thank you Tommy. I'm hoping to post a quarter every week this month so the reviews should all be up by the end of the month.

The 3rd quarter had a lot of major events. I may have to break it up into two parts just so the thread doesn't take too long to load. Work has to come before this so hopefully I'll have part 3 up next week? lol

I originally planned for 4 parts but will probably break it up more due to the amount of shots at the major events in the 3rd quarter.
