your probably right about the spacing, I usually type it in when i'm done a pic, and i'm very lazy/stooopid.

I haven't changed the sky though.... haven't touched any of those pics since they've been up. strange.

So i have been working on a bit of a project lately with someone who has interest in Aboriginal art. He has got the dialysis machine hand painted from some very talented aboriginal artists.

I took on this project, as i got a great interest in seeing beautiful art, and also my thesis at uni last year, involved working in the medical field.

Two sample pics for now. Still lots to go thru and edit.

But amazing art work i must say!!

Lighting wise: - two b800s, one bare bulb and one in large octa box. Backdrop was a black fabric supplied by the client. He wanted a black backdrop so we used this colour.

For the next shoot/project i want to put a glass underneath do get some reflections. So work on that next time. Its hard to move such big machines, so getting it into a proper studio will be hard and a lot of work. So i worked on location with limited space and items. Thank-god they got rid of the insides of the machine, otherwise it would have been seriously heavy moving it around.

One of my corals: Its grown so much over the year, and the colours look amazing in the tank.

A shot from yesterdays wedding:

- I tested the 50L for a bit to see how it compares with the 1.4 version i got and i must say im very impressed. When this lens locks in it locks in!!!

- The below shot is of the bride walking past me inside the temple. Manual focus points chosen as always and i focused on her eyes. I hate the 5dm2 focus points. ITS SO SHIT!!!! damn you canon!!! The only thing i hate about the 5dm2.

Anyways here is the pic im proud off.. Well got a thousand or so pics to process.. fun fun fun..

Visited the Cruise for Charity on the weekend, mainly a commodore event put on 'Street Commodores'. Was a really well organised event. had a dyno and an area for photo shoots under profoto gear, had a bunch of stalls and some other stuff. here's a few pics.

Agreed, that 3rd one is a wicked angle! Awesome back drop as well. The bogan inside me wants to check out the Cruise for Charity sometime! Also wants me to get a VK, but I'll try and subpress that one for the time being :)

Hopefully I can get my laptop back soon so I can chuck some more pictures up here.

hey hey.

that cyber shot is probably my favorite from the day too.

I used a remote flash which was to camera right, sitting on the ground about 4 metres from the car centred and pointing straight at the back.

Here's some more.

This was one of the hottest commonwhores i've seen in a while. I like the angle on this one too. shame about all the distractions and boot.

Sweet photos matt :) Keep it up!

I got some photos to post later tonight hopefully when my stupid web server gets back up after maintenance.

BTW - With your watermark do the following MUCH easier!

In photoshop:

File -> New -> Transparent background

Type out your watermark exactly how you want it.

Flatten image (MUST DO! to create a "Layer 0". If it doesn,t just double click the "background" layer so its not locked)

Save as -> PNG.

Then open it in photoshop, draw a marquee around it.

Copy it.

Minimize it.

Paste onto photos as you go along! Use the free transform tool (i set mine to 40% Width and Height) then the move tool to position it.

You can also make this an action also. Although i think you need your saved "watermark" to be open. Haven't played around with this part.

Ideally you can create a brush also.

Then run an action and batch all your photos if you want to do it that way also.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
