Kenny, nice pics and now you've got me thinking again - every time I see a Mk6 with mud flaps I think - hey they don't look half bad, why don't I get some and reduce the amount of salt etc getting onto the bodywork, but I just haven't got the bottle to go through with it.  :undecided:

Nice photos

My only criticism would be that a number of them are very 'dark' so a fair bit of detail is lost  :undecided:

Really like the last one with the light trails  :cool:

Yeah it got dark very quickly! Just misses the sun setting over Arran which was annoying. Should be able to get it another time though.

He's more into BBB. Bear, bikes and bonking (i.e. when he's not too drunk) :evil:

I'll stop now, as I can see where this is going.

Kenny:

The pictures are great and I really appreciate the time and effort that's gone into taking them. I keep looking at them continuously and enjoy their artistry which I find very uplifting. Thank you for posting them and look forward to seeing some more.

Ecellent photos Kenny, maybe add them to the Readers Rides sticky at the top of the forum page (and also in the general photograph section if you're brave enough to handle the mk6 haters!!!  :smiley:)

In fact you're a brave and hardy couple of individuals going out doing photoshoots at this time of year! Brrrrrr.  :cool:

I love the pictures with the winter skies. Very ominous. Try and get some more and for all the seasons. You are lucky you have a friend who is a photographer and has an eye for great backdrops. Go for some more if you can. I know it's quite a lot of work and time consuming. But what wonderful memories it will bring you and us in the future.

Your thread is such a breath of fresh air and I love it to bits.

Thank you.

Wayne : You don't have to come in here if you don't like mk6 owners there are plenty of other forum sections.


It was a well written opinion featuring colourful language, which was then diluted in the form the acronym: 'stfu' I feel this added well to my thoughts/opinion and due to the cyberbulling that I am often subjected to in this section I decided to nip it in the bud before the entire thread went completely off topic. Which it almost did anyway with sir typemythoughtsoutonline having his say anyway, finding it hilarious that he was doing somthing that I regarded as so predictable and would inevitably fail. So if you dont mind I will end my comment in the sea of predictability that Am1r seems to enjoy...

think im going to be shooting my mates GTD MK6 soon should be fun

Like the pics but as already mentioned some are a bit dark, but like the idea with the light trials but some of them are a bit ott with the Photoshop / hdr treatment for my taste but handy having a mate with a nice car to practise with  :wink:

I did a shoot with a few people from here about 2 yrs ago and got some great shots in over looking the valley from merthyr tydfil quarry
