Ah cool - I'd love to work in a place that has something to do with cars

For the love of GOD dont become a mechanic! I love my job, but fark it fustrates me! Lol. Great balloon shots, btw.

Mat, thats the best use for a Falcon I've ever seen :ermm:

Thats prety cool, would love to see what the second one would look like in hdr form....

Hmmm.. I could try but its only a single exposure so don't think I'll be able to get too much detail out of the foreground hey

Haha no I wont! Hate working on my two cars as it is.

ps cheers :D

^ excellent bike shots. Love the 2nd last one. Natural lighting or flash used? looks like flash in the last two, but could be wrong.

I only borrowed it for the day. So much fun tho!! Its a great lens.

I was looking at fish eye lenses on eBay, and found a whole heap of add-on lenses for less then $50. What are your thoughts on these, guys? They attach to the end of your existing lenses. Cheaper then $600 for a new lense, but dont want anything dodgy.

Go easy on me, I'm still learning the basics of my DSLR.

Taken with Nikon D60 on our recent trip to Port Douglas and the Daintree. What I really learned was to take good shots I had to use the manual focus because all of the tree branches and stuff caused the autofocus to fritz.

Here are a couple of ones that I thought were ok for an amateur. Croc was "Scar Face" on Daintree River Croc Cruises, Lizard was on a full day 4 WD tour (called Boyd's Dragon) and Golden Orb was freakishly huge - as big as my hand.

IMO they are a waste of money, and have limitations/distortions/vignetting caused by the imbalance between the lens and the add on.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
