Nice shot Serg! Is that from Mill Point Rd? I tried a panorama of the city line, but it failed miserably

Cheers, was taken from South Perth Esplanade, off a small jetty there. 6 vertical shots stitched together, a bit over 90MP in the end

Drove down to Mandurah to visit my friend's dad and grab some icecream on New Years Day. As always, the camera and tripod came too:

David, noticed you're in Wollongong too. I bought the 550D back in Sept or so, keen to catch up sometime to try and get tricky shots happening? Keep in mind Matt and Kory use hella good glass; I'm looking at spending the coin soon to get something good

Hey Owen, sounds like a good idea, just let me know when your free so we can catch up and you can show me how to use this thing properly.

Went down to Summernats yesterday. Twas good. A couple pics. Will be posting more over the week. I've got some gold shots!

Bonus before I head to bed (Back to work tomorrow... BOO!!!!!!!!!!!)

I call this one... 'le pop'. it's a metaphor for society and the energy crisis after a cursory observation of humanity... It could also be called 'He Did One'

[farris]

Cant wait for the rest if the gold shots are still too come! cant wait to become a v8 bogan lol

[NA_Goodness]

Agreed! Some nice shots there Matt. We have Motorvation over here in the West this weekend, might go down and grab some shots of the bogans blowing up their cars in the burnout pit

[oweban]

so i'll be leaving this thread till page 3

there's few things in this world i hate as much as summernats. not because of the cars, just the people. nuclear ordinance could be dropped on it and i would not feel a thing.

humanity wins.

[MaTBoY]

we can't all be super sophisticated aristocrats. there's plenty of dickheads there, but it seems thats the case at any car event. they're just a different class of dickhead to what you're used to dealing with i think some of the people there are alright though. The cars though... damn, there's some awesome machinery there. very impressive.

[oweban]

(dammit i came back to see the replies)

yeah, i'd love to see the cars, just can't deal with the bogans. they make me want to murder the whole world.

Owen you realize this is page 4? Noob.

Sweet shots Matt. I was going to head down until saturday night i went on a bender and i asked myself when stupidly drunk "Theres fcuking bogans in Canberra everywhere for Summernats.... Theres hot chicks everywhere here.... Where do i want to be?".

EDIT: Bangaz Boy - I really like that bird feather in the sand shot. If it was a bit brighter i'd love it more. Great compo!

40ppp

also: good choice; the ladies vs bogan douchebags isn't a hard choice

[MaTBoY]

I don't understand... you see the same ladies all the time if they're where you live, and you're basically married now anyway

You don't get to see that kind of machinery every day. It's worth the dickheads that lurk in the crowds. I didn't see one fight or anyone staunching up. I still wouldn't take a girl but it's definately a lot more toned down than a few years ago

[FST513]

See the same girls everytime!?!?! Are you kidding? What you been smoking man! I donno what you do on the town in the 'riff but i meet a lot of people every night lol. I dont have the same group of 5 mates and 5 chicks. I didn't spend all of highschool/after school meeting whole different groups for nothing lol. And married?!?! I'll burn your house down for that!

I agree that you don't get to see those kind of cars everyday and don't get me wrong would of loved to see it. I'm not into V8's or any of the muscle car type, but those cars are insane but its the crowd that brings it down for me.

Either way, i want more pics!

[MaTBoY]

you want it. you got it.

Bonus

[siddr20]

forgot to ask you on the phone matt.. do you have any pics of my car?

[NA_Goodness]

S15 rotory? Wow... Took me a while to get that! Lol. Kinda sad, I work for Mazda

That blower would make my 33 go pretty hard...

Nice pics Matt, how did you get those effects? (background in darkness). Was it post-processing? Or something you did with the camera?
