The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

Got some proper strange looks when I rocked up to the beach with the long lens this week.
Joseph had his first surfing lesson in Newquay.

I've wanted to get a shot of St Michaels Mount for years. I've had a certain shot in mind but I never managed to get it when I was there this week.
I took a lightweight carbon tripod and the wind was absolutely ridiculous so only managed 30 second exposures and shooting directly into the sun! Had to settle for these angles. Next time maybe!

Also did a trip to Newquay zoo as it was free entry as we are members of Chester zoo.

And Joseph was working to a couple of Cubs badges so did a bit of sailing and tried surfing.

Folkestone and Deal. I need to use my camera more.

Few from about a million pictures of Japan.

That looks awesome. Japan is top of my go to list.

Awesome luke. My sister has just come back from there and said its an amazing place. So picturesque.

She sent me a pic of that skyline in the exact same place.

It should be for everyone mate. It’s an incredible country and we want to go back already.

I was being really thick and wondered which skyline you meant, thinking ‘view’.

But yeah, that r34 seems to be part of a driving experience around Toyko.

Not at all my thing but suits the surroundings perfectly!

Funny really, as they chose a car that was in a film set in Miami, rather than Tokyo

Orange Veilside RX7 was knocking about with it around Shibuya too, but didn’t manage to get a picture.

Also, might be iconic but it completely ruins the lines of one of the best Japanese silhouettes imo.

That one is always knocking about Daikoku PA advertising for tours


After years of not picking up a camera having fallen out with a mirrorless i've picked up an old canon body and now having the time of my life

There's something special about seeing the historic car's being flung around like a cheap hatch back

Totally agree. Which is what makes the Goodwood Revival such a spectacle!

I'd booked tickets to the Spa 6 hours thinking it was a modern GT car race.
Upon arriving it was motoring heaven

 

[Matt Cup]

Incredible!

I need to get my Nikon D7000 back off the boy. I let him use it to get a hang of DSLRs last year and fell into the trap of just using my mobile because the cam is pretty decent and I can edit on the fly, but I miss using an actual camera

I've since added a 150-600 into the mix

It's really put a new life into the hobby
