lloyd has got a niiiice camera with a big lens. that photo looks like the car is standing still when in fact im sure it was hurtling at great speed.

as for the photo i found, its so good you almost think its too good to be true but im sure its real.

Re: post yer photos.
 

i believe it! i was watching some StormChasers business on television and there was a tornado with a rainbow in front. Lovely. Then it ate someone's house. Not lovely.

Anyway, great photos, y'all!

Re: post yer photos.
 

I'm curious, what do you think of this building?

Re: post yer photos.
 

Well since then I have taken a couple of pics of it. You can see them both here.

At first I hated it but now I think its great. At first I thought "how can they get away with building this in the Museum Quarter in the old city?" (most of the bulidings around it date from 1580-1850). But its not on the Oudegracht (main canal), its behind and its out of the main public eye. Also gaining controversy at the time were the container accomodation for students at the university here -> pix

Re: post yer photos.
 

Thanks for the additional pics. I've always appreciated Netherlands' and Germany's willingness to experiment. The US, particularly Colorado, the state I live in, are relatively conservative. Cities and developers just aren't willing to take chances, so I envy your country for that reason. That said, I believe that contemporary architecture generally falls into 2 categories- architecture that is designed for the user and the public, and architecture that is based mainly on the ego of the architect, more art than architecture. Without having experienced the building first hand it appears to be the latter. The exterior doesn't seem too friendly and based on the window pattern I question what it feels like inside. I can't even tell what it is- residential? office? ? All that aside, it is interesting in a geometric, mathmatic sort of way. But is that justification to make people live or work in it? I much prefer Santiago Calatrava's work in that respect.
The student housing looks pretty interesting, small, but at least there's some good glass.
Thanks again for the photos, interesting...

Photo taken by the seaside in Whitby. The boys were playing football and I'd taken a few shots of them in action. Some were good but just not quite right, so we cheated in this one - the ball isn't actually moving and the lads just pretended to shoot and dive on the count of three....

not bad for me though :)

Re: post yer photos.
 

Nice shot! And nice shot! :D

Re: post yer photos.
 

very nice, polar_action :)

There's a lot of amazing stuff in this thread, making it difficult for me to feel comfortable sharing my own. I don't have a car, so most of these are of everyday life around my apartment complex or college campus.

This is part of a recent impulse to use my camera at least once everyday.

Re: post yer photos.
 

cheers for comment real stuff....but WOW.. your shots are VIVID.

I really like the green dumpsters and the half an hour after the storm sky.

I'm just getting started and know nufink about photography but the colours in you're stuff is amazing. What did you use?

Re: post yer photos.
 

Oh! faking a shot! almost makes it art.. ;)
Indeed a nice shot, nice composition

Re: post yer photos.
 

thanks :) The colors were enhanced in Photoshop with a few levels adjustments. The technique makes for some unnaturally colorful photos.

A few years ago I was introduced to B&W darkroom stuff in college. I recently got a digital camera, so I've been trying to embrace photoshop -- it really is an amazing tool.

Re: post yer photos.
 

Not my photos, but a nice selection from Onto the Streets, an exhibition of London street photography at Photofusion at the moment.

Some of my pictures made last weekend at the Eurocircuit, Valkenswaard Holland during the EC rallycross.

From a recent trip to Brasil. I'm not much of a photographer at all, I bought a digital camera just before I left, here the few that turned out ok of the gigabites worth I took.

This first one is of the area I stayed briefly in Buenos Aires, the rest are from Brasil...

Re: post yer photos.
 

[COLOR=Indigo]such beautiful photo's dave! i so impressed time after time by all the talented people here :)[/COLOR]

Re: post yer photos.
 

Cheers Lou, like I said I took about 23,000, but I'm pretty happy with some of them. Must get the camera out more often.

Re: post yer photos.
 

What brand/model camera did you use?

Re: post yer photos.
 

Its a sony DSC-N1. not a SLR or anything professional like that. I'd never had a camera before and wanted something small that i could take with me anywhere. It was top of the range out of the compact 3x digital cameras and unfortunately I am kinda prone to random irrational puchases. But I'm really happy with it.

Re: post yer photos.
 

i finally got around to create a flickr account, there's just a bunch of crappy pics of my self-made shirts up there (soon to be joined by an UW shirt), but all the same: enjoy!

Re: post yer photos.
 

Some great shots there Dave. You don't need pro material to get good pictures, it is being able to capture what you want in the picture. Good equipment dosn't stand in your way to do so.

Nice creative views San, I really like the concrete tube one (although a little cropping would hurt)

I've shot a few new ones too. 'light paintings' this time at the carnival in my hometown.

Re: post yer photos.
 

So I finally just went and tried out a photo-sharing site called Tabblo. It was developed by one of my wife's old high school friends and a few others. It's completey free and simple to use. I just set up my first page with some photos I had on my computer at work from our recent trip to Thailand, so please feel free to take a look at them and check out the website.

Enjoy!

Re: post yer photos.
 

I got round to looking at the http://www.tabblo.com/ site that Sean mentioned above. 'Tis really cool and very easy to use, you can just drag your photos into place, resize, add text etc...
