Photography Thread

Rules:

1. Images must be within' the appropriate forum constraints. Maybe the moderating staff will let some larger images fly, as long as they're not too large. I'll discuss this with them further; until then keep them the appropriate size.

2. Must be appropriate pictures. This means: no racial, crude or vulgar images may be posted. Also, pornography is not allowed as it is against forum rules.

3. Any inappropriate comments will be deleted. Criticism and how to fix ones image is acceptable, as long as the context of that message is not meant to harm the photographer's feelings. I just mean no comments like "That person is ugly! You are a horrible pixture takerz!" Any of that will be instantly deleted and infraction points will be given. We're all mature, let's keep it that way.

4. No stealing. Anyone caught stealing or taking credit for a picture that was not taken by them will have infraction points given and instant deletion of ones post. It’s always smart to have a watermark within your photo.

-----------------------------------------------------

Since a lot of us have pictures we want to share that are not xmods, i thought i should make a thread where we all can show are pictures.

keep them PG13

------------------------

Photography has been my main hobby for quite some time now; coming up on two years now. My dad is a graduate from Florida Institute of Technology with a masters degree in photography and I have been learning tricks, tips and ideas from him ever since I picked up my camera. Between him and I we own both a Nikon D100 and a Nikon D2x. Along with those two camera bodies we own various lenses; two of my favorites include the 70-200mm and the 28-105mm. Along with being in the paper here at home my father has also had a few images published in some RC Flight magazines as well as RC Car and Action. One of them even made the cover page, I'll try to locate it online.

I've had a few photography classes inside of school and outside of school, so I could hopefully by now answer any questions you may have about a camera and how it works. If I don't, I can always ask my dad. Even with these many classes I still find myself not up to par with some and would like to improve my photography; so please, do not hesitate to critique my images!

I'll start with some of my older images:

Ford F150 Xmod. Doh! Talk about a major boo-boo; I left the timestamp on. Rookie mistake.
Mustang Xmod. Doh! Again, time stamp. Still, rookies get better and my next batch was hopefully better..
Donzi on Lift. There we go. A little better, eh? No time stamp, at least!
Fence. Too dark, don't'chya think? Yeah, me too. It'll get better..
Rose Bush There we go! Lively, bright and colorful. Looks much better than the rest.
All of those above images were shot in the summer of 06'. Way back in the beginning of my photography days.

Wine I These are a little better than the rest. Lots more of the darker colors.
Wine II. Needed a little more into the image.
Those two were little bit later on.

Decided to get a little crazy in these next few.
Firework Missle. Fireworks show out of a missle canister on a slow shutter speed.
Firework I. Neighbors fireworks display, always a major attraction on the river.
Firework II. Whoops, I'm still messing up!
Pyro. That one is just for all you pyros and pyris.
The above were taking during Fourth of July, duh.

Time to get into some macro, eh? That's what we're all interested in, is it not?
Xmods PCB. My first attempt at macro with the Xmods PCB.
Xmods PCB II. Second attempt at macro with the Xmods PCB.
Nikon. Another some-what macro of my lense cap. No strings attached! Lol.
130 Size Armature. This is why I'm doing stuff...nevermind.
2mm Shock Caps. Probably the smallest macro I've done to date.. Yikes!
Xmods Front Assembly. Haha. The blue looks really striking in this image, eh?
Above are all macro.

Time to get into the best stuff. These last few are all of my favorite images that I have taken over the course of these past few years.
Photogenic
Burnouts.
POWER! Let em' rip, eh?
Great Escape! The best getaway car, ever.
EX-GF 1. She was insane. Best Friend, tho.
EX-GF 2. She was amazing, lol. Stupido mistako..
----------------------------------------------

I'll be finishing this up later and posting more later.

Blaaaaahahahahha, CTS pics are developed!

But, until then: http://texanidiot25.deviantart.com/ I'll get to dial-up killing later this weekend.

Life is a busy...

But I <3 this Minolta. Lesson learned to use a lower ISO, but oh well, the ****'s still tight.

But guys, get rid of date stamps, and a bunch of macro shots of xmods gets tiring. Get creative

mustanglover · #8 02-05-2008, 12:19 AM

ling427ttvette · #9 02-05-2008, 01:06 AM

Hhmm... I have some macro pictures that I would like to share.

First, my cat:

The watch and necklace that I got for christmas. CAMARO BABY!

And, 3 macro's of my NSX that I think turned out great:

I have like a bajillion more pictures, but that's all I want to share.. for now.

Stampedekid · #10 02-06-2008, 09:32 PM

Wow, I have a lot of photobucket images. My camera isn't the best for a $200 camera on close ups, but takes amazing pictures!

All pics below from LI Balloon Fest 2007!

fordman239 · #11 02-09-2008, 01:41 PM

ok, well, here are some pics i took a little while ago, so enjoy! these are pics i took at my dads work.

texan_idiot25 · #12 02-09-2008, 01:59 PM

Just gotta say one thing, random pics does not constitute as photography. Snapshots if you will..

Fordman-stray away from the flash. Some the indoor ones could be good, if with out the flash, and such..

If you have a slow computer, let it load before scrolling:

Hooters Custom Truck show, 07

Houston Autorama, 07

'68 Cougar XR7, a neighbor of mine's.

Various cars:

Mine:
1998 GMC Jimmy, parents, but Ive fixed it more then enough times and know far more about it... it's mine at heart, lol:

The CST/10, my pride and joy... also the biggest hole-in-the-pocket maker I own

My daily driver, a 1990 Firebird.

Next batch is going to include: MiniZ MA010, Medals, Armatures (macro) and some food.
