^not wrong, specially considering its ISO 800. had no idea the d40x was so good at lower light stuff. but then again, it IS a nikon ;)

*que canon fanboys* :P

love the lizard shot Ben, awesome looking pets!

mattboy kills it yet again. the red behind the car in the front on shot tho, was that gelled flash?

love how the LED brings out the anodized metal in the wheel nuts and makes them really pop.

no new photos from me, suffering from being a mental case who can barely leave the house at the moment. :/

ah matt, that first photo is tops. Love the yellow warning paint that goes across the car in the first photo. Makes the shot look like its from a movie/game

lol, too bad he didn't wash his car before hand though :P

just keep smashing pics out and it happens over time.

those leisure suit lounge lizards are cool. how open were you shooting. got some nice DOF happenin there.

The first pic was at f3.5 on my Tamron 28-75, and it was a pretty heavy crop but the detail isnt too jeopardised (atleast for web viewing).

The second two are with my friends infamously terrible Canon 75-300 III, and shot at f5.6.

Cheers for everyones comments on my previous pic. Slowly going through all my Europe photos so plenty more to come :)

A couple of photos from Lorne, VIC

so sharp, so crisp, nicely exposed. damn nice, sir.

Jay, can't you just get a torch and light the whole thing up, then paint extra over the words/parts you wanna bring out? You're old coloured LED graff paint on paint shots were cool. do more!

^agreed, awesome shots!

that is what i did for the shot i posted, single LED headlight thing over 15 seconds. it was adding the highlights with colored LEDs where things went pear shaped. I kept forgetting which parts where which color and generally just screwing things up, lol. The most successful ones I have done were the ones with a less complex fill / fading to contend with. That said tho, keen to give it another go at some stage when im over that side of town.

Here are 4,500 photos I took a little while back.

EPIC!!! Thats awesome man. What did you shoot that with and did you use some kind of external power source?

Love the stops for quick photoshoots. Have you posted up any of those shots? Top stuff!

Spectacular photos guys, well done. So crisp!

Matt, you should seriously take those to some car manufacturers to see if they want some work done. I know a lot of them use overseas material and adapt for Oz, but that stuff looks 100% pro.

Josh, those are awesome, something I'd definitely buy and stick up on my wall. :thumbsup:

Jay, get out there man! That one from behind the screen actually makes me think of those warm summer days when you're looking out from inside the house, pondering what to do for the day, or just staying in and doing nothing at all.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
