Photos

We have photo competition, but that does not suit for some other pics we take, so I thought that perhaps some others will be interested to post their not so much car related photos

I took some shots today while enjoying sunny weather at lawn. I have only gprs connection still, so can't upload all I would like, however I put few of what I think best shots here:

I like those pics

Odd tree that is, well on this side of planet it would

Thx from comments too

Too bad this shot did not came out quite way I hoped.

Those are rather quick so it is not so easy to take good pic of them with 55mm objective while they zoom over your head

A bit late to the party... but a few of mine

Most of my pictures are cars it seems, I havn't been into photography that long, so still learning what I like taking tbh... but a sneaky car shot in the meantime that I won't get to post anywhere else

But that trend is so last year

It has boxy shape, so it is not too bad, but it is a car which is not so good either

Strawberries have grown quite a bit so I might soon get good pics of red ones

I have to admit i love the old mk2's especially the small bumper ones they have good performance and still have great reliability, my dad had an old mk2 and he said it was the cheapest car to run and maintain hes ever owned and he didn't keep it standard.

Anyways back to the great pics of flowers and what not ill try and get some pics up later today.

I should get a decent DSLR camera. Now I just have a Canon poweshot Pocket camera so no award winning shots..

Some random pics still.

(This one is taken with IXUS pocket cam though..

)

(Large water tower near my house and old warning sign for ice/snow dropping from the roof at winter time

Also taken with IXUS pocket cam)

Brilliant shots mate

Thanks! It's funny because I don't know much about photographing, golden sections and stuff like that.

I just imagine pic in my mind and take one but it usually works for me.

I'd like to get a cam which can take decent night shots too.. I've tried to take some with the pocket cam but those always end up grainy.

That night shot of Chris' is amazing.

Jtbo what cam did you had btw? Great colors in those pics.

Fuse, those of the clouds in the fields and the squrriel are superb!

I got my cam just before xmas (when people were treating themselves to a new one, and part ex-ing there old stuff), never could have afforded it otherwise, all are that cam (Canon 20D), aside from the yacht/moon which is on my firmware hacked Minolta Z2.
