I need an aston. nice rolling shot.

As for the racing ones, the reflection pics are great. very sexy times. the one with two images overlayed? Is it a schooner?

Here's some bike shots, something different for everyone

i didn't know there was a dirt race track just down the road from me, found it the other day. the old nepean raceway. Had some event on, reminded me of the good ol days of bmx.

Hey Erci i was in Queenstown two weeks ago too. I was up that mountain that you took those shots from. Best driving roads up that mountain

Haha, you're kidding! We were in town at the same time. I was there from the 8th to the 15th - then shot back to Sydney in time for the Wakie track day! such a small world.

As for driving road, well wife got nervous with being able to see so far down the edge and the ice up the top where the Remarkables Ski resort was. Besides, the Camry rental car was kind of a pig. hehe.

The overlayed image was actualy a stuff up, I just wanted to batch multiple raw files in to psuedo HDR's, instead it blended them all together... it was late to my defence, lol

To my eyes, that is backfocusing slightly.

Say whaaa

[ZENNON]

I don't think manual focus would be an issue IF my camera had the focus thing... I recall an old film camera I used in high school had two half circles that would slide left or right on each other.... They'd create a perfect circle when ur focus was spot on. Do any cameras do that anymore??? Cuz I'm unsure how manual focus could be used effectively without something to indicate.

Hopefully that made sense

Yes I know what you mean and it is actually possible to change it. I have a friend with a Pentax SLR and he changed his focusing screen himself (or whatever that little thing is called) to one that does exactly that (cos he had a lot of old school cheap sharp manual focussing primes he bought cheap).

Beautiful pictures lepper

The only lens I own is a 50mm, so it was super hard to fit everything into the frame

[MaTBoY]

Nice work boys.

You don't need a big camera to get something nice.

Did, have you tried panorama with the fifty? You can create some cool effects and capture larger scenes.

By the way. All holder show on at Richmond today. At Nepean raceway.
