Bought a Canon 550d a few days ago. Been shooting only in auto mode so far, I'm still trying to figure out how to use it lol.

Mess around in Photoshop with this photo

Nice one David. Contrast is nice

just a few more shots from work. not sure what im going to do when there is nothing left to explore.

Get a longer monopod so you can aim the gopro through the windows below? :P

What lens you using, 'Fisheye Lens'?

im using a GoPro, so not even a real camera, lol

as for pointing it into the windows below... not sure i would see much other than a bunch of suits doing normal suit type things

One of these?

^yep, thats the one.

Sidd, I gain access by exploring. Some places its just a matter of lucky timing... I go up there at a time they forget to lock doors. simple as that really. would love to gain access properly to a few of the higher profile buildings and use a decent camera with a massive boom to get further out for crazier angles, but I'm not going to hold my breathe, lol.

Be sure to put a brick in the door so you don't get locked out there... ala the Hangover!

my favourite is a regular bolt placed into the striker plate so the lock bolt cant close. another is simply using a rolled up piece of paper wedged in the doorframe to stop the door closing completely. always a good idea to have a few little magnets with you just in case there are reed switches, lol..

pretty much all over now tho, nothing worthwhile left to explore sadly. resuming boring life in 3, 2, 1...

I'm trying to overpower your comments with my signature :)

haha I think you're winning

Mine is the dodgy white GQ wagon.

Nice - like the tires!

Bit hard to see quite how steep it is but this was a little heart stopping: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=kOinXJ0v3Cc

Yupp totally agree

Nice shot

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.

I've actually been thinking about buying some sort of compact with a large sensor too.. started doing some research: google spreadsheet

(Just shoot us your email address if you want write access)

@Lepperfish - nice gig shots (know how hard it is to take those)

Whoa that would have been an amazing shot if you were half an hour earlier (I'm assuming its a sunset not a sunrise)

Ps. thanks SAU! :D

ended up buying an olympus e-pl1 for $360. the lens i want tho is around $800 grey import (panasonic 8mm fisheye. half the weight of the olympus fisheye and doesnt need a 4/3 to micro 4/3 adapter saving $300). will be worth it for the higher quality of the pics once i have saved up enough. time to start trying to get permission to take shots from the higher profile buildings, not sure how that will go. have a feeling it will involve spending more money on roof access type safety courses tho, lol. would be worth it, would love to specialize in photography from high places. something about being high that fascinates me, im scared of heights, but am too addicted to give it up, lol.

either that or i need to road trip to other cities for some rooftopping missions, lol

and your right about that shot, i left it a bit late to get up there, i need to finish up half hour earlier and be up there ready. would also like to bracket it next time and do a night HDR so all elements are exposed properly. that burnt out statue irks me, lol.

    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
    • Got my 34 gtt tuned last week. Car made 362 wheel horsepower at 19 psi. Turbo was the ATR43SS. Only other upgrades were haltech 2000 series. 650cc injectors, walbro 250, fmic. Pro hub dyno reads 6% lower than actual figure according to my tuner. Car is a real ripper now.  IMG_7261.mov
    • Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone in Melbourne (preferably West) has a non-S2 R34 front bar. If it's already off the car, even better!  Nothing too weird, I just need to get a cut-out of the hole that the front indicators clip into 🤣 (image attached for reference)   I've got a front bar from JSAI Aero, but those holes need to be cut myself, and I want to get it right so the indicators will clip securely. And my OEM bumper is a S2, so I have no reference. So looking for a member who might be able to spare me a few minutes to make a cardboard cut-out using your front bar.
