Photo/Photographer thread.

Taken off the ODP website. Drone photographer needed. See below:

 

My company has recently completed a few construction projects and we now want to photograph them to display on our soon to be launched revamped website. We come from an upmarket premium home builder background and have recently done a few larger projects and want to showcase those to show what we are capable of.

I could do the architecture photography side of things but I honestly don’t have the time to get out to the sites at the moment PLUS we were thinking of getting some aerial footage with a drone as well (which I can't do)… so I'm wondering if there are any photogs here that can do both the architecture photography and aerial footage??
We are not looking for high end fancy photos (waiting for over a week for the right weather and bringing your own lights etc) but we would like someone with a bit of architecture photography experience (and a Tilt-Shift lens would be ideal – I have a http://www.outdoorphoto.community/forums/images/smilies/Canon.png 17mm T/S lens if necessary).

We are Gauteng based and the possible sites we want to photograph are in Steyn City JHB (20 houses), Houghton JHB (2 luxury homes), Hyde Park JHB (apartment block and office block) and Eastwoods PTA (Student accommodation apartment blocks) 
Please PM me if you are interested so we can discuss costs etc.

Old website if you need to get a feel of what we want to improve on:http://www.helmconstruction.co.za/gallery.asp#
New website will have a much more modern feel.
(disclaimer - I didn't take the photos on the old website http://www.outdoorphoto.community/forums/images/smilies/tongue.png)

Thanks a ton

Did anyone do The Grind over the weekend?

I spent the last week in Madikwe Game Reserve, Helps having a sibling who works at a 5* Lodge...

Had great sightings of Lions almost everyday, but missed out on the Wild Dogs and Cheetah which was high on my list.

 

Here's a sunset shot which I had to do handheld, single image with 5D+16-35, iso125, 1/10sec, f22 for the sunburst.

And this was a hair raising moment, I got to watch my first successful lion hunt. There were 2 lionesses who took down this warthog, they executed it perfectly and it took all of about 5 minutes for them to get the pig. The warthog put up a serious fight and tried to get away a few times, but it finally gave up after about 40mins of being held down by the 2 lions. The squeals and cries really get you but this is nature and only the strong survive.

 

This image is the full frame, using a 70D + 150-600 Sigma at 435mm, f7.1, iso640, 1/2000sec

I wanted to stop in at the Heidelberg Transport Museum last week, but was told that it is closed. Pity.

 

Love your pic.

My first serious attempt at the astro thing.

 

Changed the contrast and that is it.

 

Not entirely happy with the composition etc of the image - but it is not a bad start either. Need to do a bit more reading and tweaking and figuring out the development a bit more.

Terry - that's still something I want to do - take a long exposure shot from Signal Hill overlooking CT at night, then overlooking the bay, and out to sea...
