Where are the pics people! Damn it's been quiet in here. Although, so have I. Been busy.

Anyway, here's one you might of seen. Shot on the side of the road in the hunter whilst sipping on some wine. If you haven't been, highly recommend it!

EDIT: Posted this off my phone and clearly it's compressed pretty bad :( Damn. Oh well. You get the picture. CWUTIDIDTHAR?!

Its the HDR. Too much HDR and too much photochop has killed photography for anyone not wanting to spend endless hours fking about with multiple exposures of the same scene. It is just out of control.

Great pic. What a view! Nice car as well :P

Car we picked up last night for my mate :D
First time using PS. Open to criticism what i did right/wrong.

It's a good shot for a documentary shot. Doesn't look like you were trying anything here so can't really criticise or anything unless i know what you were trying.

Nice car though! Hope the apex seals last :D

mind explaining what's good/bad about the HDR phase?

Done well on landscape shots etc it allow the photo to be more like what you see with your eye as the final image has the high dynamic range that the name suggests. So the dark bits arent so dark and the light bits arent overexposed.

But you can select too much range and this ends up giving the photo a sort of artificial/chrome look to them. And you see that everywhere - in car mags, on websites. It is just overdone and everywhere and to be honest I am over it.

Eg

Not fantastic IMHO. I just wish the grown up photographers would use it less.

I've got a couple more shots from holiday. But I do have to admit to being a bit lazy. Even though I brought three cameras (FZ200, GH2 and Sony Action Cam) I pretty much did all my shooting with the point and shoot FZ200.

It has nearly fit my needs for a Full HD Video, extra long and decent wide zoom, and hi-frame rate slow mo video. Just the sensor is small and gets noisy as light drops.

That old pac shot is pretty rad.

HDR 99.% kills shots. Well, if you can tell it's HDR anyway. Best HDR are ones where you can't tell I reckon. There are exceptions to the rule though, like everything. Look up Trey Ratcliff. http://www.stuckincustoms.com/ He's hardcore HDR but he does it really well and tastefully!

nice work Dan!

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
