Hahaha i dont think so. Especially because i'll be a lot busier. I think 2012 i will do it again. So bi-yearly i'll do it

F1 goodness is FTW!!!!!

Chase - Quality shouldn't be affected at all by going from full res to low res (web size). As long as you re-sharpen everytime you resize you'll be fine and it will be of even better quality than full res because it will appear sharper.

23MB files sound like you've got around 15MP. So when you resize down to web size, re-sharpen it (not the full amount you use for full res, half it e.g. 40% for full res, use 20% for web size). If the quality is still compressed and artifacting, then your not resizing to the proper size and your image hoster is compressing it down for you.

Sweet pics! As always black is hard to shoot with especially on a sunny day with lots of reflections. I think you did pretty well

thanks mate

camera is 18mp (canon 7d)

is that why on the internet the pics are looking reduced in quality? i had to print 8x12's of most of the photos from the car shoot and they printed awesome. il give your advice a go..cheers

my latest addition:

[NA_Goodness]

How did you get that effect? I've tried it a few times, but never that good.

Serg, great pics mate! What time did you get there? From what I heard on the news, I'm pretty glad I didnt go. 2 hour traffic jams and 35deg heat wouldnt have helped my hangover at all. Haha

few more from this month. starting to get less and less inspired to take pics at work. i think im finally growing up, just want to work.

Jay - Your only like 40 days in!!! I'm sitting around 335 days! Looking forward to the end! If i was a pro tog, then 365 would be a breeze and have lots of awesome things to shoot!

Got there prety early, arround 8:30 so didnt have an issue. I had full trackside media access for the day which helped with the photos

nah i mean i think im over photography altogether. keep getting reminded by the missus how much money i wasted on it and how little i earned for our family for it so time to hang up the camera and work properly like everyone else.

Serg, how'd you hook up a media pass? I'm assuming it ties in with redbull since 99% of your shots are red bull centric.

Jay, don't say that! growing up is for old people and boring f**ks.! You have a mad eye for a shot, you probably have the best eye for composition in here. You can make something spectacular from nothing. from a roof or a wall or a sign. that's talent baby!

Anyway. one of my fav random snaps from texi.

JDM AS FK. (vtec yo) Woulda called it ying and yang but thats been done before ;0

[FST513]

I'ma fly to SA and slap your missus silly. Although if you did spend heaps (which im sure you did as we all have) and made little income i can see where she's coming from. Maybe you shoulda busted out the, you've spent a lot of money on clothes and inscent candles with no income from it!

Keep at it man, no point hanging the camera up if you still got it. You'll look back on them when your older and remember the good times!

Matt - Lolz0rz at yin and yang.

[ZENNON]

Nice pic mAtb0y!

[siddr20]

It feels like he is just about to piss hahah.. nice shot tho

Dont give up dude!!!

Offcourse family is more important and do what ever it takes to look after them, but your passionate about photography. Keep it as a hobby atleast!!

Had to sort out backing from an editor and all sorts and apply to the media manager of the event.

Shots are all Red Bull as it was all about the Red Bull car being in Perth. There was heaps of other racing, just havent gone through those photos yet

[Jay019]

Sorry guys, early morning Emo moment, lol. Got to town and started shooting as per usual, made me realize that it's something that's too much a part of me to just give up. Took a few dark pics and then got busy with work. Started noticing more things to snap and everything just kinda clicked (pardon the pun) lol. I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I didn't have a camera close by. I just need to eat more happy meals I think

[FST513]

Well i can make a comment about what to shove into your missus's mouth, but that wouldn't be very nice. And i guess, im in a extremely humourous mood, so i will just laugh about it to myself

If i got told to just drop my camera and never touch it, i think it would be in my head still "oh that would be a rad shot", wish i had my camera, etc etc.. When your a photographer/serious about it, everything you vision is to do with photography. You can't just tap that out!

[MaTBoY]

go light a candle, cry yourself to sleep and you'll feel better tomorrow tiger

keep on snappin though, or i'll fly over and smack u upside yo bitch ead.

[ZENNON]

my advice would be to shoot more spend less (so to speak)

I know a guy who keeps buying shit - doesn't even use it (or even know how to!)

[FST513]

I know someone exactly like that too Zennon!!!!

[Jay019]

With the "spending heaps" she was more talking about the money spent going to the drifts to take photos that would end up published on local papers that I never got paid for. All money spent on gear was classed as an investment, it's the return wasn't there.

As for the candle... lol, I'll grab a razor and have a bath instead
