what equipment do u have?

i see u've got a 400D but do u konw what lens? or is it the kit lens? do u have an external flash or are u using the built in one?

one of my biggest hobbies (on par with cars) is photography. i've noticed that ur pics are quite underexposed and some could do with a fill flash to bring out more detail in the shadows.

a couple of other hints would be to set your camera on a longer exposure for the night beach shots and put it on a sturdy tripod. use a small aperture (8+) and try to get the horizon lines straight. look up what the rule of thirds is and try using it more. also don't clutter the pictures with too many subjects.

i'm always happy to discuss photography - so hopefully this helps a bit and u can always msg me with any other questions =)

built in flash. I didnt have a tripod with me when i was on the beach, I was resting the camera on a plank of drift wood lol :nyaanyaa:

Alot of night shots that I took, I took without a flash as I was trying to learn how to use the camera.. thats why they are under exposed. Also I wasnt allowed to use a flash for the aquarium shots, but I started using it half way thru anyway.

I have posted what lenses im using in here somewhere, but its 6am and Im to tired to remember right now or look for them haha

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
