Homebush is closer to what i was thinking. Little bay is really nice, but it's like an hour from home, more if there's shite traffic. There's water, there's some cool old dirty abandoned roads, some art and architecture and.... BEER. Also it's central. Maybe we can hit up little bay another time for a water/land shoot?

I'm keen for some beers and photos.

Sidd you love that place don't you lol.. That the same place we did the model shoot ages ago yeah?

We can always head out to my area on the beaches for something. Maybe shoot a few cars before sunset, take a few sunset shots, then take a few star trail shots or something?

Probably best to vote on a location.

Bring the girlfriends so you can drink more :P

I think a Car shoot followed by some landscape photos followed by XXXXXX Would be a good idea. Would be like an SAU workshop lol.

Lol little bay is easily an hour and a half for me.

Theres lots of industrial areas out there, lights from the stadiums and gritty stuff, good for car shoots. I don't know where half of them are though.

Might want to wait it out until the NRL finals are over also, or do it on a different day. Don't make it a final day lol.

On another note...

Just mucking around.

Lighting was two AB800's.

Lol 6. And this was the medium sized balloon.

I told the missus numerous times when to pop it, but she kept delaying or being too early.

But finally we got it. Not what i had in mind, but it was too late to keep mucking around :P

Yea its like taking water drop pictures.. You take so many and only a get a select few which turn out great.

So want to do an underwater shoot. Anyone know where i can hire out underwater housings??

I used to play around with water alot, but with video. We use high speed cameras at work. they shoot anything between 10,000 to 1 frame per second. It's good fun, yet to try anything with the camera though.

Shame you mentioned your misses, I was about to comment on how manly your hands are hahaha

bucks night tonight. should be good! >:P

Sidd, if we end up at mens or platinum we're talent scouts for a very large but unnamed publishing company :(

Wow! You thought about coming over for superlap from perth!?!?! Holy sh!t, dedicated much!

Anyway, here are a few muck around edits. All natural lighting. Just tweaked in photoshop. Obviously a few errors as i didn't spend a long time on them.

Got the 550D today :) problem is that CS3 for Mac doesn't recognise the newer CR2 files, wtf? I've got the latest RAW plugin, but nooo. Have to grab CS4 from work then.

Got a damn good price, considering it was Harvey Norman and all: 550D and the 18-55mm lens, 50mm 1.8 lens, 4 years warranty for cam and lenses, 2 Hoya UV filters (pitch 0.75) (one for each lens), a Hoya CPL filter, extra battery, 16Gb Sandisk Extreme, Inca tripod, and a Kata bag for 1863... very happy. Got home late so I've only got a few crappy shots, took one of my doggie though; shooting in full auto at the mo until I get a bit of time to play in the daytime with it. Nothing special, just my gorgeous doggy who's a bit drugged up cause we had to take him to the vet to get most of one of his nails cut off; he'd broken it and it was hanging :(

No photoshop (grumble, stupid CS3 and no CR2), just straight from cam (and resized).

Congrats Owen, hope you enjoy it.

Yep, you'll need CS4 or CS5... The thing with adobe is that when the newer cameras come out they only give out certain updates to camera raw etc.. until the new photoshop comes along and then any cameras released after that aren't supported by the old photoshop.. It sucks, but thats how they rake in the cash.

Enjoy all the new gear!

Wow! You thought about coming over for superlap from perth!?!?! Holy sh!t, dedicated much!

Meh, I need a holiday, so why not? Check out a new city and it certainly beats the V8 Supercars, not that we get them over here any more...

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
