  1. cheers gus!!
  2. Not bad...but some of those outdoor shots have a bit of noise...is that what you were after???
  3. i like the panning shot best (apart from the female)
  4. seen in local caryard...rb20t AUTO!!! with sunroof
  5. i like it too, adds to the foreground...and its sharp and clear! recent excursion
  6. that looks noice!!! what did you source the main bits from??? wouldn't a R31 fit??? same size bay!?
  7. Aaahhh..i see..never had time to view your stream as such..... good work on that B+W shot!!!
  8. sl!m - go for it!! sid - if its close enuff to use AF yeah but i use MF as i have sussed out my normal lens as to what is best for Infinity (not at the end it seems)! Peta - i like the first shot, didnt really notice the smudge marks for a while.
  9. sid, i like the fact you get planes in your shots!!! and that one from Xmetal..Very nice indeed...one of my flickr mates does these and he's our local king..30mins-1hr is not uncommon for these!!! OK, for those of you wanting do try these night shots here are a few pointers.. 1: use full batteries, nothing worse than sitting waiting for the shot and 2mins later you hear the lens shut!!! 2: Use Bulb...get a cord from e-blah or even a local camera store..there cheap. 3: get a tripod!! doesn't have to be $$$ (i use an Optex..cheap) 4: use some foreground object..if you can... 5: if you do find some foreground object..take a spotlight if your not close...damn hard to focus when its dark as!!! 6: some people do a test shot using high ISO and calculate the time of low iso shots..(i just shoot). 7: Gels, these are theatrical cellophane that you put over your flash head or torch (they dont wrinkle much) to then colour the object to highlight a usually boring bdlg. try a PA/dj hire place, anyone who rents lights etc..(i got mine from a lamp replacement shop). and just play!!! you probably already know these things, but some may not...meh.. recent gel shot... edit: sid..i use a standard kit lens 18-50..if you play with you White Balance settings any fluros or street lights willcolour the obect in different light...play a bit! this is what you get when setting for Tungsten when its actually the top flash instead...(the blue is the colour change instead if white)

    Hahahaha, did Will show em to ya?!!!! glad you like 'em
  11. nice one sid - but you should have something in the foreground to focus on, the stars will always look the same, but you need something in the foreground also...even if its just your house or a tree (use some gels on the tree to colour it or change the WB to make any flouros change it to blue!!) like this (from my backyard one boring night)

  13. Peta, K10-100 cameras, as most, only go 30secs.....you need to buy a corded remote..($10 off eblah) that way on 'Bulb' you lock the lens open...*just ,make sure you have full batteries* also make sure you set for white balance...ie fluro and sulpher lights change the overall colour in the pic!! recent night shots.... oh..got some great shots there Xmetal!!!!!! oh oh...Siddr - sthrn polaris is 32degress above dead south!! (and the stars that look like continuous dots is either clouds moving fast and covering the stars OR if its windy, could be slight camera shake.)
  14. aah, found it....rego for 12mths in WA for my private R30 is.....$409...much cheaper than eastern states!!! (business is $485)
  15. mines fixed too, workmate got one out bush and just put in in, think it may be off a 720 ute... smaller and the solenoid is on the other side of the top bolt..but, it works .sooo tis all good
