Well I went to Phillip Island Circuit on July 2nd, there was the Alfa Romeo Sprint day plus a few other random cars. I managed to sweet talk the organiser of the event and scored a media pass, so I put my fluro vest on and snapped away.

There were a few GTR's too :) Gear used was a Canon 1D Mark IV and a 70-200 f/2.8 IS II

I like that front half of the crx. nice shot. good composition!

those mtb shots are cool. i thinka flash would have helped freeze that motion a bit more, if that's what you were going for. :)

another from friday night... R33 flavoured this time.

cheers matt, yeah I'm kicking myself, I forgot to charge camera batteries the night before so I charged em in the morning. Flash batteries didn't get enough charge though as I only have a trickle charger, had enough for a test shot and that was it lol. doh.

Getting Vertigo from that! Great shot :) For some reason, I reckon this could look awesome if converted to B/W and with upped contrast. I also think it could be a great theme if you could get access to some 'darker' buildings that are more adventurous architecturally. If that makes sense.

Just a few from the weekend's Macquarie Pass Pie run; trying out my new 50mm F/1.8 G

cheers. i was considering b&w due to the lack of color in the pic, but im lazy, lol.

as for access to other buildings, most times i gain access by stealth so i dont get a lot of choice as to what rooftops i get onto, haha

Hey everyone,

I got a brand new website up and running. Let me know what you all think.

Link: www.sidd-rishi.com.au

Cheers

Very nice Sidd. The separation between the Indian and Western weddings is interesting... I wonder if either group looks at your website when telling you what they want for their wedding, and maybe takes some ideas from the opposite side of the world, so to speak.

Here's a shot from Friday night while out with Matt and Kory. I'm not too happy with it because my flashes wouldn't trigger via wireless for some reason, so the lighting could have been a fair bit better.

Nice one mate. Was this before or after the car locked itself? :happy:

I find the commander mode / remote flash irritating sometimes; as the sensor for the commander signal on the SB600 is on one side of the flash and if that happens to be on the opposite side to the camera taking the photo, you're a bit stuffed. It'll work indoors with a low ceiling but elsewhere (outdoors) I've found it trickier. Unless I'm missing something, maybe they should put a transparent window the whole way around the flash body, then all that would be needed is some reflective plastic to bounce the commander signal up into a sensor inside the flash.

Thanks mate, this was after the car locked itself.

My flashes have a base that can rotate 270deg so you can pretty much point the sensors wherever you need to and still bounce the flash in the intended direction. It's just that they wouldn't trigger. Oh well...

    • Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.
    • So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..
