Re: Photo of the Day

I like your photo silverysights - I thought it was a shot from a live gig or something.

Speaking of basic cameras, I recently took this on my iPhone:

Melbourne Arcade
This is right in the CBD of Melbourne and has some of the coolest cafes and graffiti in the city. The atmosphere is what makes it though.

Taquile Arcade
This is right in the CBD of Taquile, Peru and has some of the coolest cafes and graffiti in the town. The atmosphere, well, it's the people that make it.

(I like your pic Elgyn, lol)

Re: Photo of the Day

lol... yours too. I looked into travelling to Peru but it's like x5 more expensive than somewhere like Vietnam so that looks like my next port of call.

Here's some of the actual graffiti

Re: Photo of the Day

My friend sent me a text on Superbowl Sunday and asked if I wanted to hang out, because it was her birthday. So we went downtown, hung out, went to dinner and saw a movie, it was a pretty chill time. We went to a sushi place for dinner and when you pay the check they give you a slice of pineapple and a slice of orange. Tasted good but we were toothpicking for a while because that shit gets stuck in your teeth..!

Re: Photo of the Day

this thread got kind of dead, did y'all run out of naturescapes to shoot? :P

I was looking for a new point-and-shoot to carry around (kind of hard to fit a DSLR in your pocket, ya know). So I picked up a Canon S95.



I know, I'm a bokeh slut. One of the reasons I picked the S95 over the G12 is that the S95 goes to f/2.0.

Re: Photo of the Day

hushy, nice photos on the new camera. I regret selling my point and shoot to buy the first SLR. This thread did die, but I have been resisting the urge to post snowboarding pics. Here are a couple of old shots from a local restaurant.

man, that sucks. I lost my first P&S and DSLR from theft, though. I've decided not to get rid of any of my cameras...I know I'll still use them. When I upgrade my DSLR, I'll still keep the Rebel XTi around as an alternate camera, or to let someone else use, etc.

One of the few things that looks better online than naked.

To me it's like "whoa! huge flame!" and that dude is like "yeh, just doin' my job"

Niiice, Elgyn! The SLR really captures all the little shadows and it's more defining.
