Title: Nice pictures
Post by: DuVeL on February 03, 2006, 12:53:30 PM
Okay, I know some people here like to make pictures aswell so I thought, "Why not start a thread about nice pictures all the forummembers made".
The once Dewey put about the cars were cool so here's a few I made on last years wintersport:

I've hosted all the pictures at ImageShack, it's really easy to use and gives you links for the thmbnails and so.

Thanks,  It's a hobby I took up a couple of years ago.  I'm having a go at portraits as well (I've setup a home studio to keep me busy when not playing CZ), but haven't posted any of the pictures yet.  :)

So if any of you know some lovely ladies looking for a portrait done  ;)  :whistle:

Some great shots there Whitey, you happy for me to steal a few as backdrops? I can tag them with your name if that would help?

Strangely I'd normally just go right ahead, but as I kinda know you it feels right to ask.

Your more than welcome m8.

I'll check the settings for the swing shot later but I would expect the shutter speed would need to be around 250 or faster for that shot.  Wait for the top of the swing as there is a slight pause before coming back down, so you have a better chance of getting a good shot.  Also getting down low ( I was sitting on the ground ) can help get rid of any distractions in the background, leaving just the sky.

Just me and my Les Paul.

The actual picture has notes on it in Flickr (click on the pic and go there).  You can see the group of pics that went into this one here (http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=9007366@N02&q=%22les+paul%22+2008-04&m=tags).

I took an opportunity for Instrument Wednesday to do a B&W shot with the Les Paul at work (after hours).  See Day53 (http://www.flickr.com/photos/rabbibob/2361535959/in/set-72157603837605024) in regards to the 'Cheap Lighting Setup' I cobbled together at work.

Title: Not mine - my bro-in-laws
Post by: Jabbs on April 04, 2008, 07:28:38 AM
Thought you might be interested in these photos on my bro-in-laws website.  He's currently based in the Rocky Mountains and will get up at 2am to walk 15 miles just to get shots which no one else has ever got!

The reason I mention him is that due to some bug or insect the trees are dying fast so he was over here (England & Scotland) recently to consider a new place for his photography business.

Hope you like:

He is a professional yeah and he uses top quality kit...One of his cameras takes immensely large resolution images...sooo large he gets them printed sometimes 6 or more feet wide without any loss of quality.

Some great shots there. I've been trying to save up for a decent tripod and some ND filters to do the long exposures. I quite like the Ansel adams type shots as well.

Nothing very exciting really, just one of the risks of taking electronic equipment into an environment it not intended for although I will say that, camera electronics + 4 powerful Nimh batteries + dash of sea water = fking hell, that’s hot.

Thats basic physics for ya. Sucks when it happens to high value equipment though :sad:
