funny story though, I borrowed a tripod as well and had removed the handle to pack it... when I was setting up I had screwed the handle in the wrong way and the bloody mount kept flopping forward, I couldn't work out WTF was wrong until a customer came up and pointed out my error...embarrassment much!!! :P

Not bad Nick! Looks really professional.

Lol at the tripod, we all make those sorts of mistakes. I was doing a long exposure shot of a mates car the other day, and as I was talking to him the camera slowly dropped down... He just looked at it and went "you know there are pills for that, right?"

I love these shots, Jay - so simple, but you've got a good eye for shapes and leading lines.

I was outside this afternoon doing the shots for my Canon competition entry, and once I was done with that I decided that I would try and experiment with the 100mm macro lens and see what I could find that might be interesting.

See that thin metal rod coming into shot from the left of the photo? I don't remember it being there when I took this shot.

cheers. its getting harder each day though as ive shot so much of the city that finding new things to focus on is becoming a challenge.

and Slim, love that first one also. ive always tried to get the same effect but havent had much luck yet. the top on in my post is the closest ive come, which is still a fair way off, lol.

yeah good abstract with lines and shapes jay. they're all interesting and well composed.

how did ur canon shot turn out nick? is it a winner? Is it Egg-cellent? :thumbsup:

nice work sam. the beach shots are nice but that first shot really stands out. it's full of radness!

ohh, just writing up an ad for a print graphic designer role at Penguin Books atm lol

shit pay tho :blink: lol so meh I'll probably end up with someone with no experience I have to school up.

would have jumped at that job when I left Uni many moons ago, Penguin are a bit of an institution in the design community... but yeah publishing doesn't pay so well for GD...

I'm lucky in that I work for a studio that does a bit of everything... and my boss doesn't mind me taking on my own clients etc

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
