Godspeed - thanks for checking out my website. Im hoping clients will check out both sides, but I wanted to split it in two as I tend to shoot more indian weddings.

But otherwise design aspect is all fine with the website?

Quick shoot of my mates 32. Used a portable camping fluro light to light it up, far better then iPhone 4 light I was using before! Need to make something up that'll cover the excess light, might do that next week if I remember/cbf.

What camera settings did you use? wouldn't mind trying this but have nfi where to start.

yesterdays effort...

been thinking about a micro 4/3 camera with a real fisheye lens pretty much just to get higher quality versions of shots like these. not sure if its a wise move getting into debt for such a stupid reason tho, lol.

specially when i consider the fact that there is not a lot of adelaide left for me to explore, haha. i needs a bigger city, rofl!

Just off the top my head, I used a 50 second exposure and f7.0. Can't remember the focal lenth, but I'll get the Exif data and post it up when I get home. Used a 17-85mm lens too.

Matt's probably the best person to talk to when it comes to light painting though!

And like Sidd said, you need something to hold the shutter down for long periods of time. I've got a external shutter button for these things, cos me $45 from memory.

jay - great effort man.. So how exactly are you doing those shots? Must have missed your previous post. Wait I think I read you got it on pole???

cheers dude. i should take a photo of the setup, but yeah the gopro is mounted on the end of a monopod. its a compact pod so only has a reach of 145cm. it does fit in my bag tho, folding up to just 39cm. i would love a stomping 192mm gitzo, but dont have a spare couple hundred bucks laying around, lol. need to work out a better ball head for this one, atm im just using one stolen off a cheap fold up table tripod form the 90's.

Well, splitting them would also have the added benefit of those who *are*, say, very anglo, looking at your site and being able to straight away click on the Western side, if that's all they're interested in – instead of clicking into a gallery which contains both, and therefore contains pictures they're simply not interested in. And vice versa. I think it's a very good idea.

Yeah. I do reckon it looks great. The look and feel of the website has a nice crisp feel to it with no overbearing details, which says something about the photographer and the product that people can expect. Navigation and load speed are fine too, even on my 1990-spec Dell work laptop. :)

Now that's starting to freak me out! Great shot. Can you try a bit more photoshopping to up the contrast further and emphasise the depth (or height) of the drop?

@ josh23457 Here you go man

Gorgeous motor - I'm not the keenest Porsche fan but the 993 GT2 is definitely one of my favourites, and this would cost a bomb to buy.

cheers man, i want to take photos that make people physicaly ill. being scarred of heights myself i start getting headspins looking at some of the shots i have taken, haha.

i could try upping contrast, but the source was from a gopro which arent really made for stills. been considering a micro 4/3rds setup with a proper fisheye lens. may have the opportunity to go abseiling to take some shots of some window cleaners in adelaide soon, if that happens then i'll be thinking about a new setup a bit more seriously.

Lytro

The camera that turns light into living pictures

This year, Lytro will debut the first light field camera for everyone. OK – you’re not everyone. You are a beautiful, unique snowflake. And you deserve an amazing camera that lets you capture life’s singular moments, like baby’s first steps not second, with maximum magic and minimum hassle. No more fighting with dials and settings and modes. No more flat, boring, static photographs. With a Lytro, you unleash the light.

Looks really interesting. I wonder if this will change digital cameras much?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
