Nice boat!
Now for the pictures from Monster Jam. PM me if you want some video links! Some pictures are shaky, but I was excited, bear with me.






Monster Mutt at Wheely competition

Blue Thunder pulling towards his wheely

"The Legend" Dennis Anderson lands on side while in the wheely contest, he was ok and the truck had a crack on the back of the body.

Motocross Dirtbike jumping(the red blur)over a 60 foot gap.

Monster Mutt in smoke after doing his signature, "chase the tail"!


Dennis Anderson walking back to Grave Digger.

Anger Management, Grave Digger, Team Suzuki, and The Broker



Driver coming out of Blue Thunder(was not Tony Farell)

Grave Digger


All of the pictures were from this past Saturday, February 9th 2008(of course!)

El Toro Loco had engine probs at the 2pm show EST, my friend went to that one, so he didn't show up to the 7:30pm EST show, American Guardian wouldn't start back up for racing, so his teammate, Anger Management had to race for him against Grave Digger, guess who won........Grave Digger!

Well, my girlfriend works at the local zoo here in town.

And, a guy came up with a 3 month old wolf puppy wanting to donate her, but the other wolves would have killed her.. so my girlfriend bought her from the guy, for $300

I hear that is really cheap though. Here's some pictures from when we first got her, to kind of recently.. this is just over a 7 month period.

3 months old in this pic:




And her at 10 months old:


Not the best of pictures.. if someone wants I will put them as links.

Exclamation 56k (Overkill) Suicide

I thought this was a photography thread, like the art, not just random picture thread?

Man, I hope there is no picture limit on this forum, cause I'm gonna pass it..
And talk about 56k Suicide....

Random Pictures:















Pictures from last summer in Sweden:














Dad's 1979 Honda Civic CVCC:



The picture below, I took the idea from a picture is saw of a Koenigsegg, on the Koenigsegg website.


This is just a nice shot of the Gen1/MC-T Hybrid I built:

Aww...you are so dang lucky. That's one cute wolf, here's another picture of my puppy Eros when he was only 9 weeks old!
He was resting on my brother's shoe and hugging his "doll". How cute was he?! I took this picture on Eros's first camping trip. Taken in June 2006.

I have some pictures from a wolf reserve, but I need to dig them up on my computer pictures!

Seriously. All my pictures are taken with a 2.0mp camera, and look at them. I let Photobucket resize them and they come out clear. My camera get's grainy when it's dark (the Digital one), but that's normal..

I'll try and get the film from my Pentax devoloped when I get money.

EDIT:
Here's a picture I took with my less than one megapixel camera phone this morning. Not super grainy, but no one can tell when you're looking at it from a iPod or a Phone...

since no one else will, i'm taking the liberty of removing all of the BS spamm posts in this thread.
no one cares what camera you use or what lighting you shoot in.
this thread is for pics.
feel free to add text but you'd better have some pics along with it.
this is "The Official Photography Thread"
not the "Official Argue About Art and Cameras" thread.

if you have something to add that doesnt pretain to pictures, take it to PM's.

no one was really arguing about what camera was better, we might have been playing around a little bit with one another, but it was all good fun.

I feel a photography thread is an appropriate place to talk about what cameras we may use as well as lighting, exposer, iso or flash settings. Since most of us using this thread consider our selfs hobbiest to photograph we actually do care about such things and they are helpful to use in our work. Trying to help a member shoot less grainy photos is not spam it pertains to the topic, and is helpful to other members who may come across it later on.

would you like me to quote the the posts that had hardly anything to do with photograghy????

recommending a camera or lighting is one thing, taking the thread completely off topic with 47 useless posts is another.

i'm willing to comprimise though,i can bring back some of the helpful posts but there werent many.

"All Seeing Eye." This is a macro shot of my dogs catarak. It changed color throughout seasons and even glows in the dark. He can't see out of it, so he barely even noticed I was so close to his face..



"Whinery." These are three wine stoppers that my whiney little brother turned over the past weekend on a lathe. My Uncle is a woodworker and likes to turn things on his lathe (pens, wine stoppers, etc.). They make a great Christmas gift.



Larger size is on my DA.

+1

Help get others to take pictures is apart of the thread IMO.

Some pictures after the NY Aquarium, there was a beach so I got some pretty good pictures. It was about 40 degrees *F outside at that time.
Let me know what you think!






Pictures were taken today. It was amazingly quiet on the beach, I would have gotten videos of the peacefulness, but my brother was being annoying.

What I took:



What my dad took:


These are all straight off the camera (except resize). I'll post up the pictures of our diver diving when they're edited and fixed. These are all the .JPEG files, I'll post up the .NEF files later. Much better quality.
