My Ride: Late 2005 M5 in Silverstone Metallic II with Full Black Leather Interior. SMG, LOGIC7, Heated Front Seats, Rear Electric Sun Blind, Comms Package, Professional Nav, TV Function, Extended Voice Control, Adaptive Headlights
Well I decided to go out and buy a new camera. It's the Canon EOS 450D SLR. And it's pretty damn good! I am by no means a "wiz" on photography, but that's why I bought this camera!! Want to gain some knowledge and skills!! Anyway! I decided to try it out the evening I got it, and at about midnight when I had finished all my emails etc I went out and took some photo's of my car, and where I live etc. Hope you like! Not quite sure they're screensaver quality, but maybe in time!

My car and home 
Sandbanks (where I live in the UK) Some of you may have heard of it. It's the second, IIRC, largest natural harbour in the world. And a pretty nice and exclusive place to live. I don't think I will ever move!:

Thanks guys! Hoping to get a little more accustomed to the camera, and make use of it properly!

Nice pics, brings back memories of the early 90s when I lived near Sandbanks too (just up the hill about half a mile away). I almost bought a house on Sandbanks for 400k that would be worth about 5 or 6 million now. Regrets? Oh yeah, a few

Thanks guys!!
Gene - Thanks bro! Enjoy your new camera too!! That is actually a house bro! The flat you're maybe thinking of is on the market, and I have moved into my new place. Which is the one in these photo's
DD_545i - Wow!! Didn't think too many of you would have heard about Sandbanks, let alone have pictures!! Haha!! I take it you lived on Evening Hill then near Lilliput? That's the known "hill" around here... Or was it up towards Canford Cliffs/Branksome Park way? Tidy looking old school Supra too!!
As for the property prices... Yeah!! They're soaring sky high. It's sadly a VERY expensive place to buy... But worth every penny IMO. I also know that my house is going to appreciate in value quite a lot, so in a few years, it will be a good investment! As soon as the property market picks up again at least!
NYC530xi - Thanks bro! As for the quote. I honestly can not remember
I'm racking my brain trying to think!! I have a feeling it was actually a friends status on Facebook and I took it from there. I can't remember for sure though!!
