Thanks! I had such a blast taking pictures all over Romania. Here are some from Dracula's birthplace, Sigi Swara.

And Brasov...

And Rasnov Fortress...

And Bucharest...

And the wires that blanket Bucharest...

And even from our flights over there.

And there'll be some more to come from Sibiu and a couple other random places in Romania.

EDIT - here's a link to all of the Romania picture collections I have.

words in your shell-like from my phonera...

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

That looks real interesting.. what is the sculpture all about and where is it? sorry im an art historian and this stuff gets under my skin if i dont work it out quick..haha

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

it's called the aldeburgh shell, and is on the beach at aldeburgh, suffolk. don't know the story behind it... lovely little town, though -with lovely views of thorpness nuclear power station!

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

Ha oh dear... well best concentrate on the shell then and forget the background. Looks very cool! Good stuff

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

doing it a bit of a disservice, to be honest; it's an incredibly picturesque little town - feels very unspoilt for a seaside resort...

scallops to you, too!

Do we have any photographers in the house?

I'm a film-sort, myself: while I love a lot of the work I see done with digital cameras these days (oh, the quality!) I've always found myself yearning for my old, old Canonet QL-17 when shooting film these days.

Oh, dear - these boards won't let me post images directly. Sigh! In any case:

Share yours? Or some beautiful photographs you've seen, lately?

Re: fotografia.
 

Nice work! Since you're a local you should also put up some of your stuff here. I check it weekly.

Re: fotografia.
 

Hey, thanks for the link! Melbourne's architecture is so wonderful - so many buildings and places I've been meaning to go to and photograph properly, so little time! I've got a few friends who are into breaking into abandoned buildings and going down drains, stuff like that, so I've been thinking of joining them at some point. Let me dig up some links for you at some point - a guy I know ended up in the abandoned dental hospital in Parkville, and some of the things they found and shot there? Absolutely amazing...

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

Very nicely done! I love that you mentioned Final Fantasy in that post - I remember playing FFVIII as a teenager into the wee hours of the morning, and a lot of those shots remind me of the cities and strange places in it...

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

thanks for the kind words:) glad to hear someone can also see the contrasting similarities with the final fantasy theme.

happy shooting!

from new york

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

very nice photos!
the art deco rats are cute
but my favourite is the heart of new york

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

thank you for saying! the heart only came out when i started mucking about with the shot in flickr - a nice accident...

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

cool... I had similar "problem" with my HP scanner a few years ago
I love nice miracles like that :)

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

this wasn't a problem - you can make quite a few level adjustments in flickr - that photo was originally in colour - it's the sun shining through the bulb that makes the heart! but it was miraculous when it appeared :)

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

yeah I know what you mean, my life is full of miraculous coincidences like this, in fact it´s of frequent occurrence (with or without computers) and it´s not only because I´m observant or have a lively imagination :)

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

stemmer det!

"....& there are more wild animals in the head than in the bushes...."
I love that one!

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

finally got around to re-doing the old photo portfolio... you can almost grasp a good chunk of my adventures in the last year or so:)

what a busy (and lucky) boy - excellent stuff!

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

annoyingly, i've realized the site layout was not actually the best for presentation, back to the drawing board as they say:mad:

//\/\/ i really enjoy the mood in this shot, was this all natural lighting? -
http://www.flickr.com/photos/nutts20...7623243997754/

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

thanks - pleased you like it! from what i remember, it's indoor lighting - but i tweaked some levels using the flickr editing tools to make it b&w and adjust the contrast...

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

those flickr tools are pretty robust for being fairly minimal. i think picassa has something similar to that extent.

here is another updated series from my recent trip to china:

http://chris-molina.blogspot.com/201...unleashed.html

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

Those are nice pictures, Chris. I'll be going to China in 3 months, but I don't think my pics will be as nice as yours.

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

really nice photos - love that umbrella/roof/floor thing!

Re: Photographers on Dirty
 

oh that's fantastic news! you'll definitely be in a better weather season than my trip... it was absurdly freezing to the point of being quite unpleasant.

whereabouts will you be visiting?

taking "good" pictures is all relative, really. though, it certainly helps to have simple fundamentals like composition and lighting in mind when snapping a shot. just about everyone is a photographer these days, so it all comes down to what kind of story you are trying to tell. i think //\/\/ has demonstrated that well with his source images and post touch ups with simple flickr tools. so again, just ask yourself the right questions while shooting (and in post) and things may begin to shape accordingly.


latest shots:

calvin harris + burns... god i feel old. these are the latest dj's sweeping the dance floors, or so i'm told.
