Recreating a 10 year old photo: A lot has changed since then. *** UPDATED 4/26 ***

Got a new car this week! 2016 BMW M3. Very happy with it!! My dream car is finally mine!

So I finally got to take some proper photos last night, and I decided to try something I thought would be cool. I took a photo by the docks about 10 years ago of my then new Audi A4. I returned last night to take a similar photo. I couldn't find the exact spot, so technically it's not an exact re-enactment, but close enough!

10 yrs ago:
Canon Powershot A80, 4mp
Audi A4 Quattro, 150hp

Now:
Canon 6D, 135mm f/2, 20.2mp
F80 M3, 425hp

Here the pic of my Audi A4 taken a decade ago. Notice the fake bokeh I photoshopped in! What a noob. Still a noob today, though.





Now, last night, better camera, better lens, and 275 more horsepower:

Replicating a 3 month old shot of my 340:

I think I might do a couple of these in and around LA.
