Wyatt Earp Posted July 20, 2011 Author Posted July 20, 2011 Hey Dangle. Glad you made it to the Piston Ring. I thought I saw your car when I drove out. Nice shots! Yip, that was me hogging a parking so close by I couldn't find you and saw you leaving as I was getting the kids pancakes.
CAAD4 Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Yep the food can be quite good there.. It was a nice turnout, despite the so called fuel shortage. The old gas guzzlers were there in force.
Griffin Posted July 20, 2011 Posted July 20, 2011 Greg at the MTB WC 2011...played around with this in pse8Â
patham Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 @ Dangle - great motor pics. Over the w/e I was trying to get pics of a motor thats a lot less glamorous, a very rusted, decrepit, Lister stationary engine. The lack of contrasts and highlights just killed the attempt though. Those highlights come though great on your shots. Here are some tame wildlife taken at the same time though which I though were acceptable.
Wyatt Earp Posted July 21, 2011 Author Posted July 21, 2011 Very original. Well done.Absolutely.@Grebel, that is some good work there.
Grebel Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 Absolutely.@Grebel, that is some good work there. Thanks mate! That means a lot coming from you! I was playing with different settings (Shutter speed mostly) and only got the angle right on the last 3 riders... Next time I know though... I chatted to a guy who was shooting on the other side of the jump between runs and he made a very good point. Carry a notebook and pen with you so that when you find the right setting, write it down!!! That way you don't waste time setting up next time. Chances are you forget what you had (In my case anyway!)

patham Posted July 22, 2011 Posted July 22, 2011 Ta for the compliments. Heres a few pics (peacock and a macaw) where Mother Nature over-saturated her colours in Photo Shop.
Wyatt Earp Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 Real good stuff there Patham. http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6125/5970577914_7cc6b82abf_b.jpgIMG_6865 by OddPix1, on Flickr http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6148/5970623646_77701b6fea_b.jpgIMG_6835 by OddPix1, on Flickr http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6024/5970632680_d3b6cfb8de_b.jpgIMG_6853 by OddPix1, on Flickr
patham Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Real good stuff there Patham.  Man, you gotta give me warnings before putting spider pics like that on this thread. I insist on at least 4 feet of separation (1 standard broomstick) between me and rain/wolf spiders, and now one pops up on the monitor, larger than life, in glorious technicolour. Heebie-jeebies of note. Although, aren't all good pics meant to elicit reactions ??
Hephaestus Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I thought this was a cool pic I took on the 45km Wolseley race this past weekend.
