let the party begin....

Here's my first photo (and I think only!) entry for this competition. Taken whilst at a family wedding India. Taken after a two mile walk/dance with the Grooms family, the Brides family had just accepted us and we're entering the main tent to start celebrating!

also ta

Though i was going for that seen it a million times before see if i can take that type of shot over the motorway bridge feel thank god for mini tripods and resonable natural flat spots that's all i can say when you exposure times are 30 secs and up there's no hope in hell of keeping oyur hand steady for that lenght of time...

I like the way light mucks around though with long exposure on the Wheel! shot the only thing which changes is the wheel itself revolving which is bearly noticeable to the nekkid eye but i wondered if it would do the light movement blur effect ... which it did, what i hadn't bargined for was that the night glow would turn the sky that reddy colour....

Other than removing some dust specs and reducing the noise a little (and i mean a tiny bit not noise ninja standards more noise danger mous standards) and a little levels tweaking to correct the minor over exposure there area shot...

well we'll have to get you a wheelchair (some rocket packs for it too so we can race you :p) and then get you out and about in the car innit maybe we can get one of those blue dizzy badges for it and that'd mena we could park up near things that you want to photo and ting...

I'm getting a van soon rather than the car so it might even be that a tripod could be set up inside the van then you could sit down and shoot ...

(thinks of a team type spot weilding and tank conversions ... then wonders if hackney council would get miffed about that sort of thing...)
 
yeah but i want to be able to walk afterwards too - rocket packs scare me! especially when its you involved :p

anyway, we digress. . .

Sorry Robster970 - can you add the title 'Let the Party Begin...' to my entry, not sure how to do this! Many thanks, Craig.
 
just had a look at the thumbnails, and already I know it's going to be really hard to choose 3 top pics.

unless I manage to get my arse into gear and go out and take some night shots, I've not got anything to enter this month. for years I've been meaning to experiment with this subject, taking pics of traffic etc, so I'm not holding out much hope that I'll get round to it :rolleyes:

infact, I'm completely disheartened with the fact that I haven't got any ideas or know how to get the best out of my camera.
 
I'm trying going to get out & about and take some, so I'm holding back a little in the hope that I won't have to rely on the archives. Night photography's really my thing but takes a little more thought.

Here's my first one: Mesh

Sorry it's a bit big in every sense, but it'll be resized down anyway - there's a smaller one here

Do a thread about it, it'll be useful for everyone :)

Edit: cheers!
