spotted this in a building foyer and it had me intrigued for a bit. love light and shadows and silhouettes and stuff, lol.

A few low res snaps of mine from this arvo. Just finished pouring rain so she's a bit filthy.

That 200SX - shame it's an s14 (they seem so dull to me), and the colour isn't to my taste, but the stance and wheels are awesome.

I love the self-portrait reflection in the convex mirror, the post with the rainbow in it, and the "dark heart" shots. :) :)

Nice photos Jay! Good way to start off December!

Matt - Seeing as you live 400000kms away from me, i didnt see anything except grey sky and pissing down rain.

Although last night there was awesome fog everywhere. Couldn't see 2 metres in front but i wish i had my camera with me!

lol, what's wrong with the color of the sil? I think it's a refreshing change from the regular red/black etc sils around. It's actually the color that caught my eye :D

S14a looks to soft and gay. Need the facelift at least.

No ufo, just the light coming through the clouds as it bounced across the blue mountains got difused and the whole sky was fire orange and angry purple. put a red glow on everything. like the world was covered with a red gel. it was awesome. i got some shots out the front where i flashed some trees so you see the sky colours compared to the normal green. will post later. looks like armageddon or some shit. evil biblical goodness :D

Agreed with Matt, your photos show a new perspective on ordinary things, Jay.

I saw that, mate, I went to Hornsby and had debated taking my camera, and noticed the colours in the sky while I was there. Even if I had taken my camera, the spot where I could see the sky from was half-blocked by a big palm tree, and the window I was looking out was filthy...

^ agree with the comments above about jay.. DUDE dont give up man!! keep shootting. I like how you explore the city.. keep at it mate.

I honestly feel my tank is getting way to small for everything, esp my clam, elegance coral and my two tangs. Hopefully next year I can upgrade to a bigger tank.

So tonight i decided to change the layout a little and open up the space up front. The clam can now open up freely without touching the glass or the coral behind it. Still few little bits and pieces to move around, but I think i will leave as it is now.

Before pic: Taken a while back actually.. so lots of things have grown even more...

After pic: Still cloudy and got my powerheads still on. Also notice the new LED unit on the left :( Looks a lot bluer tho..

It was a last minute decision as the weather cleared up and First time I have done any light painting by myself.... If only I had a BB gun or something to shoot out the stupid sodium vapour lamp that was there!!! :(

Sidd, I'm guessing you are going to take off the stickers on both lenses, right?

Also, can't you use a lightbox of some kind, even if you make one up somehow with a few flashes/strobes and white card? Or is this what you've already done, because the shadows aren't that bad. There are a few hotspots, so I'm guessing that with some diffused/softened lighting you could reduce those.

most of my work is done on my d90 with a 150 lens.

the sky was awesome, it only lasted for about 10 minutes tops. and there was only about 5 minutes where the colours popped like that. it was so awsome to see in real life. You can see on the trees and grass, i didn't adjust colour or saturation. it was unreal. wish i took some whole sky shots i could use for later on :down: next time.

Woodsy - You need a brighter light. Looks as though its too dark and can't bring out the highlights of the cars. Or use a diffuser that doesn't diffuse so much light :down:

Matt - That sky is some sweet action right there. You shoulda drove two seconds away from your house to that road where all the development is getting down and taken some snaps so you can shoop skies into your shots later on! Think ahead son!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sidd - Send me an email with some product shots i'll see what i can do. Also, let me know what you want done lol.

Best way to do it is to use a light tent (at least white walls everywhere) and bounce off everything.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
