@Just-Jeepin There's some gems in there!

@adamftw honestly, while the campground sounds lovely, I’d rather have the isolation of the beach… it’s peaceful beyond compare.

@pip-bip

@CB GIB the Town Car!!

@FourMalibus The Mavic AIR 2 has a composite photo mode. It takes a series of lower res pics and puts them together. The results are only okay. I didn't actually mean to take it in that mode, but it was the last one I used.

@HammerheadFistpunch Nice! I debated between that and my Sigma 150-600 and went with the Sigma because I wanted the reach and there wasn't a huge different in image quality. Canon L glass is nice though, and I have a 70-200mm L.

@ttyymmnn If you lived by me you could use my Sigma, though I'd probably be attending the air show with you.

@ttyymmnn maybe we shouldn't tag photography on posts that already have the tag your sending a large number of people a second notification for no reason.

I'm not familiar with that tree (or your part of the world in general) but it makes me think of the Seattle area when the rhododendrons are in full roar, only bigger.

@415s30 I think there were twelve in the group today more than I had seen in my life up to today.

@Highlander coffee

@CB ah! So it's just a super early example of something we take for granted today

@Old-Busted-Hotness With the rising costs of anything related with analog photography, maybe I'd do it in the future. I already put to my wish list of a film scanner that's capable to scan medium format film, so not having to scan my films in the lab would slash the cost by 50% already.

@annoying_salman It looked quite nice inside. Definitely a vanlife thing done right.

@AestheticsInMotion bait

My love for the scooter is matched only by my disdain for the GMC and Supra.

@Ad-absurdum-per-aspera said in My picture was featured for a photography contest!:

Artists can see what to take a picture of that others overlook

Oh man this sentence reminds me of my mindset back when I was in high school. Instagram was gaining popularity, and my friends were taking pictures in exotic locations – basically places where it's impossible to take bad photos – to rake up likes.

I don't like to participate in such dick-measuring contest, so I vowed to try taking interesting pictures within the boundary of my house's fence.

Do you have Prince Albert in a can?
...
You better let him out, he can't breathe in there!

Oh, yes please to that Viper.....loving the color on that '56 Chevy too. I think I prefer the '55 to the '56 or '57 though. Just seems a bit more cohesive to me!

I think I want that Cordoba the most though....my parents had one in Burgundy exactly like that (with a white landau roof) that they'd stopped driving before we were born and dad had just parked it on a far corner of the property for seemingly no reason and let it rot. We used to play in and around it growing up as kids....was so sad to see it slowly falling and rusting to pieces, so I always respect one in great shape! 🙂

@ash78 Oh yeah there are some pretty technical spots, the view is nice but its pretty rough. I don't know what the hell i was thinking haha.

@SantaBarbarian Yup, and they're starting to be popular again too. The RZ67 has started to show electrical issues and even wear and tear, because it's constructed using plastic instead of metal. So people are looking at the all-mechanical RB67 to replace theirs.

KSP needs an update.

@jminer said in Goodnight Oppo (woodpecker content):

@CB I miss woodpeckers, we used to have a yard full of them in Missouri.

I'm surprised there aren't many where you are. I see them regularly in the Seattle area. About once a month, a woodpecker tries finding insects in a metal gutter in my neighborhood making a loud racket. I see them in the forest frequently, where they have more success finding insects in trees.

They rattle away on our metal chimney in springtime…it’s their mating call.

@annoying_salman easy, so you need a flaming torch and a mouthful of flammable stuff. You have to spray the flammable stuff out of your lips in a fine plume, over the torch. Good luck and have fun 😉 😂

@ibRAD Ah, you're right! I know nothing of bugs, so I have just learned a thing 😄

@RallyDarkstrike I think it's less than ideal to ride through ATL on a scooter.

@annoying_salman said in Film photography: Out and about at Surabaya's historic north:

@RallyDarkstrike If the Vespa was parked there with no people nearby, I'd take more than 1 picture of it.

I would've too! 🙂

@DasWauto
I mot as talented as you…I need all the help I can get 🙂

@CB Ah, land of something or other

@ttyymmnn said in It's a volunteer photography gig, but it's something:

@CB

Print up a handful of business cards if you haven't already.

I don’t even have a website for this!

@Demon-Xanth said in A7IV test:

@CB I remember using a digital camera with an 8MB CF card. That thing would be like "Alright, I was able to save the EXIF data....now what?"

My first DSLR was 6 megapixels and an 8 GB CF card. I'm looking at upgrading from a 64 gig to a 128 gig card for this camera...

@AestheticsInMotion I like enough grip before it gives, like a nice 300tw.

@CB street view car 👌

@WhoIsTheLeader said in OPPOAfterDark...LOVE'S Truckstop Photo Story:

@tophercrowder Not sure about those 100% woman keychains. Do they have any 0% woman keychains for those that want to make that absolutely clear?

I was kind of thinking there are only 100% women and 50% women, purely genetically speaking. I'll take the latter just to confuse people.

Either way, we need more BORT keychains. I repeat, we need more BORT keychains!

@CB Loving that old red GMC in that building and that teal old Ford F150 (or F100? I'm not great with older trucks).

Also...CHRYSLER CORDOBA! My parents had one before I was born and ad in his inifnite wisdom just parked it and let it rot to death after they bought a station wagon in the 80s....I remember playing in and around it as a kid. Was burgundy with a white landau top!

Definitely my favorite! 😄

The green interior is pristine.

Mom and dad's had a burgundy interior.....so much velour!

Wow, you made my hometown look appealing again. Love visiting there periodically, but will never live there again.

@annoying_salman I had a Yashica TLR, but it's been gone a long time. Or maybe it's still in a box in storage, but I doubt it. It wasn't an heirloom, just another interesting camera to shoot with. I had a 6x7 folding camera that was neat and a handful of different 35mm cameras. Most have been sold, but there are still a few pieces hiding in a drawer.

If you can afford a working TLR with clear glass, go for it!

@ForSweden Just gotta get the right benefactors

@CB Does that mean you're currently Ontario bound?

No, this photo was taken last month.

@EssExTee given fish prices that doesn’t seem too bad

@CB If you asked me to describe a Sask. car meet, this is pretty much the description I would give lol!

@CB Those are some great shots! Really wish I had been there with you guys...

A 2009 Hyundai Accent isn't all that photogenic though 😛

I decree you all visit when I can finally afford my own place and manage to import a 126p!

@Future-Next-Gen-S2000-Owner it was rare seeing those then and even more so now! I love the WS6s

@BJ said in Doghide River Car Meet - 2022-05-26:

Great pictures! I like the weird sunroof on that Buick.

If I had to pick one car to take home though, I'm stuck deciding between the red squarebody Chev, or the yellow Z/28. A single-cab, long bed, RWD pickup is probably my favourite form of automobile. But that yellow Camaro was hot, too.

Yeah, the sunroof was pretty neat, and I guess goes well with the third bench in the back!

I really like the yellow Camaro. An 18/19 year old guy drives it and it's his project car. He's put a lot of work into it and it shows.

@AkioOhtori I've been amazed how well the Spark handled wind, and the air seems to be about the same. More powerful, but more drone so its a wash. I will launch in 15 ish sustained with gusts no higher than 35. Seems to do just fine.

@HammerheadFistpunch I love that Summilux 15mm, barely used anything else since I got it for my G9. So tempted to get the announced 9mm f1.7 when it comes out as well just because I like the 15 so much

@CB

Very nice!

Check out jbh1126 (Jonathan Harper) and puppyknuckes (DW Burnett) on Instagram - both of them are old Oppos, and I bet they'd be willing to give you some advice, if you're interested.

wattdesignphotography (Ped Watt) is also a friend of friends.

@Brickman Man the Chameleon Circuit in the TARDIS would be really hooped if it turned it into a Yaris.

@orneryduck It is, and I'll be hosting my photos there for the near future, I think.

@Roundbadge The owner is from the reserve I work at, so yes, grid roads.

Same color as the boathouse at Hereford.

@Nissan-Gloria said in Doghide River Car Meet (Photo heavy):

@CB what camera do you use?

Currently using a Sony A7II, and I used my Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 lens. Polarized filter also helped.

@Just-Jeepin
Wow! Thanks for sharing these. I just read through the engine and lens/camera ones and those have to be the best explanation I have ever seen for those topics. Showed a lot of tech info but explained it very well.

@CB idk I was on a sort of platform overlooking the lake. Probably pretty cold.

@CB hello there!

@jayvincent That black ‘59 is officially the most surprising car I’ve ever seen with a hood scoop. Topping a ‘62 Caddy.

@CB it’s sizing you up, deciding if it can eat you or not.
