Re: Photo of the Day

Haha nice hushy I remember driving that in Gran Turismo!

Love the "matrix" shot pala.

A cyclo is like a Tuk Tuk.. it's a three-wheeled tricycle for carrying tourists around.



Here's another one for the building theme:

Gran Turismo lied to me about that turn!! It's like driving off a wall, the break is really sharp and steep. I wish I could've gotten a pic of it parked down the corkscrew but I was working at the time and getting these shots because no one could see me :)

Re: Photo of the Day

I figured out eventually that if I got the right line I could do it quickly but something tells me that as a driver that would be heinously bumpy and difficult to survive. What a ridiculous corner.

Re: Photo of the Day

i'm experiencing some issues with my camera. the flash on/off is stuck off and in every camera mode the picture records the image, which takes a few seconds, so i can't take rapid shots or bursts.


here's a shot of dogfish head 90 minute ipa

Re: Photo of the Day



SPOOKY LIGHT EFFECT


This photo was taken in the Huguenot Cemetery in St. Augustine, FL, the oldest, and allegedly most paranormally active, city in the US. I was rotating my camera in circles during an extended exposure to intentionally create these light drags. One of them is ‘interrupted’.

Does anyone have an explanation or theory for this? It looks like a light-consuming, dark energy field.

Whatever caused the aberration, it’s cosmically hilarious to me that it occurred in a shot taken in that particular location, precisely as I was holding an intent to capture an image of something “weird", with the area in question directly over those two creepy crypts!

Re: Photo of the Day

The previous image was apparently too large and was cut off, as was the edit button. Here's a smaller version.



And the accompanying text:

This was taken in the Huguenot Cemetery in St. Augustine, FL, the oldest, and allegedly most haunted, city in the US. I was rotating my camera in circles during an extended exposure to intentionally create these light drags. One of them is ‘interrupted’.

Does anyone have an explanation or theory for this? It looks like a light-consuming, black-hole-like, energy field.

Whatever caused the aberration, it’s cosmically hilarious to me that it occurred in a shot taken in that particular location, precisely as I was holding an intent to capture an image of something “weird“, with the area in question directly over those two creepy crypts!

Great photos Rage, I like the goats. Good job getting down to their level, it really makes the shot. Golf shot is great too - you managed to avoid getting your own reflection!


I found a snail in the front yard today. A few more to come.

Not such a wicked photo according to Steve and Tango of TAPS/Ghost Hunters. “Throw it out,” they said, LOL. Too many wacky effects occur with slow shutter speeds. Maybe those guys need to IMAGINE GREATER if they ever want to catch a ghost on camera.

For some intuitives and empaths, those light-consuming negative energy fields are a familiar and recognizable pattern. Don’t let them boo! ya.

St. Augustine is a beautiful old city with a turbulent history. The Castillo de San Marcos is quite charming as dungeons go:

Sweet reflections. And I like the wide angle barrel distortion on the goats, cool perspective.

Here's one for today.

This one is the shit man, it's deadly good. I once wrote off my car on that stretch of road. I had it repaired and brought it back a different colour.

It went from this:




To this:


I need to take some good snaps of it at sunset and in random awesome places.
