Zennon do you have CS5? You could try content fill aware if your not good at cloning/healing?

Or upload the RAW somewhere and i'll do it for you, that's a friggin sweet shot.

Nice shot Sidd!

Unr33l - Those numberplates are FTW!!

I do - and have used content aware fill before (used it to delete a tree in this shot)

the part that I'm not good at is selecting only certain objects

And thanks for the offer but it's ok - I'll do it one day as a learning exercise :)

Have some Lynda tutorial videos at home I've started watching/doing just don't have enough time :happy:

Sidd i've got a copy of CS5 for you, just awaiting you to return my octabox AND i found out last night, my light stand!!! Had to use my old sh!tty ones for a shoot!

It's of course genuine..................................... :)

Zennon - There are plenty of tutorials out there for selections and as always with photoshop there is about 10 different ways to do it also.

Owen - Probably one of the best things you could do is come to a meetup (if there ever is one) and ask people/learn first hand. Best kind of practice IMO. Ask people how they got that effect, why they chose those settings etc etc.. I'd be glad to help you out.

P.S. I'm keen on beers and photos.

Where's your perfect spot sidd? Sounds like an awesome plan. we can do some before(BEER) and after(BEER) shots and compare the next day :)

Maybe do some cars, some scenery and some people shots all in one. Would most people prefer unorganised (besides location/time) or would you all prefer more planning? I myself wouldprobably prefer to just rock up, have a beer and see take it from there, but some people aren't as blase fair as me.

Owen, you'd probably benefit the most from a meet/shoot as you'd have the most to learn. I doubt any of us would mind your questions or helping show you stuff. we're all pretty cool (Me especially :) )

Awesome, would be good to catch up with you guys for tips :) and so you can tell me what I'm doing wrong; really really hoping to pick the 550D up tomorrow! For now (in terms of lenses) just going to get the lens kit ones (18-55 + 55-250) and the 50mm 1.8.

Thinking here:

There is also a ship wreck there :)

Its at Little bay, near la paourse (however you spell it).

Cant really take car shots there as you gotta walk 5-10mins from carpark to the actual beach.. but plenty of landscape stuff.

Good thing is that not many people know about that area so it wont be packed. Plus plenty of other near by places to check out too.

Up to you guys.

Let me know whos keen, and i will make a new thread.

I think the sydney crew should have beers in the near future.

In, pending time, date and location.

What about somewhere around the middle of Sydney metro, maybe Homebush? Have a few drinks in the area then find a spot where we have options of landscape, cars, etc. It's a big area, so it shouldn't be too hard to find somewhere other than outside Acer Arena/ANZ Stadium to do it in.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
