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.

Cheers guys :ermm: Yea you could stare at those artwork for ages. Looks incredible in person.

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.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
