The photography thread.

[Blokkadeleider]

Hey all,

there's quite a few good photographers here.
I thought it would be a nice idea to have a general thread on the subject.
Anything, just pictures, technical matters etc...

Photography touches a lot of what music is about, gear, concerts and even pictures that don't have to do with music may even inspire to write music or just for the fun of looking at it.

Last week I was away without a tripod again and trying to get a good shot in the dark so there I stood, keeping the camera in place on a pole....
Framing is not ideal and it was time to look for a solution.



Yesterday I got myself this little GorillaPod:




It's fun, can be wrapped around branches. The tips are magnetic and anything iron/steel based will keep it firmly in place.

I read this as 'The pornography thread'

Who else?

Yep, you could also possibly wrap the gorillapod around... oh wait!
You're English, you couldn't. Not enough "substance" !

Here is a good one of our dog Watson...
He had to be put down last year. He was almost 14.

Micky, that dog looks beautiful! R.I.P, I love dogs.

I've probably taken thousands of photos since I got my DSLR. Here are some recent ones.

You mean a "coffeeshop". Proper Dutch don't go there. Only (American) tourists.

Anyone remember 6x6?
No fun carrying a big TLR around while cycling in Norway...

Timely pic of mine. Happy Thanksgiving weekend my fellow Canadians. And
happy weekend for everyone else

Is that mist rising from the waters?
Looks like it is already freezing properly there.

That was mist. It has been really warm here...but going to be colder this weekend. Not super cold...but below freezing in the mornings. The west has already had a big snow storm.

I love shooting at night. Somehow my hometown looks better in it.





And I shot some nice ones with my old 6x6 back in the day. (no fun taking that extra weight on a long bike trip through Norway though)





And Trollstigen is a bloody pain to climb with a fully packed bike but so beautiful. Especially when the weather cooperates.

That's a great shot...speaks volumes.

I love photography and I've been to school for it, but unfortunately I have a camera that sucks right now and I can't take a decent photo to save my life.

I want to live there!

Sunset this afternoon...

Note the present from the Brits in the foreground. We had some rain this week.
