Paj! Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think this wins the "most desperate attempt at including Tori Amos in a thread" award Looks like that. Though to be fair it was a completely honest post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goafer Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think the prison was part of the castle at some point. Part of the castle we had a tour of was definately used as a prison up untill 1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the one that is fenced off (but you can pay to go in), that's where the tree silhouette picture was taken. It's a tree on that hill.

Goafer Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) Went to a Scirocco Register meet up today at a totally ace retro american diner. It's an actual diner imported from the states (they're movable). The drive home: Edited March 18, 2010 by Goafer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro_Link Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 The drive home: Where is this amazing diner?! Also I see you too have tried your hand at the 'still car/outside motion blur'... how did you attempt yours?... Is your camera mounted in the back?

chairdriver Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 @ Goafer: The Ashmolean stuns. ---- On the subject of photography, I need to buy a camera. I have moneyz (up to £400 realistically), but I'm so naive as to the ways of photography, and don't know what's what. Can anyone help me purchase a camera that takes stunning pictures?

For the car picture, I just put my camera on a tripod and wedged it between the roof and rear seat. I wouldn't attempt it without a cable/remote shutter release though (they're only about £17 IIRC), reaching for the camera would be pretty shifty! @ Goafer: The Ashmolean stuns. ---- On the subject of photography, I need to buy a camera.

The E520 is the model released after mine (I have the e510). I've never really wanted anything more from mine, so I assume this ones a safe bet too. Just look through my RedBubble account in my sig for examples of what can be taken on one. Single lens kit (£345) Two lens kit (£411] The best way to look for a camera IMO is to find some really good pictures and find out what they were taken with.

Ashley Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 My favourite photos from that wedding I did. First one because of the groom's pose, second...well needs no explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 The best way to look for a camera IMO is to find some really good pictures and find out what they were taken with. My view as well. For example Chair, did you see some randomers photos Dickie was tagged in on Facebook? I want THAT camera. Same story as Joanna's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goafer Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Took some new pictures of my shiny new tripod. Unfortunately, the only other camera I have is my phone, so the quality is questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fresh Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 The 50's American Diner. It's worth mentioning that the area around the diner is pretty shit. It's like they've dumped it in the middle of a ropey industrial estate/scrap yard. It really lets it down, which is a shame since it's absolutely awesome. They literally did dump it in the middle of a former work yard and the particular area it is in is not the greatest however my parents live around 5 minuets from that diner in a much better area and my best friend used to work there, before she got fired. Small world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paj! Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Quite lovely. I can imagine them being paintings. Or rather, I imagine paintings that look like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio001 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Love the picture of the diner even in that location. I took pictures of one in New York a few years ago but i can't find them anywhere. You're right they are identical & they just transport them to a location, we had just eaten when we saw it but still had to go in when we saw it. Some great pic's on this thread, will have to dig some of mine out sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyxis Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 (edited) Stolen from the fuckyeahmilitarywithpuppies tumblr. Reminds me of Apocalypse Now.. Hopefully they haven't just killed the puppy's family. Here's a pic from the Cameron Highlands in Malaysia: We walked down this path thinking that we would find an orchid farm, although we only found these 2 cute little dogs. That thing in his mouth is my map.:p Edited March 5, 2010 by Pyxis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
