Sunglasses in Mayfair by Sam Pegler, on Flickr

Shot on my RB67. So much better than a DSLR for street, you can go about your business pretty much unnoticed with it.

Went out last night to get some star trails and general night sky pictures, so headed out a bit earlier to get some sunset shots too.
I'm fairly happy with this one, should have maybe exposed the rock a bit more though.

Then the sky didn't clear at all which isn't what was forecast so I found a little cave area to do some wool spinning.

They are brilliant!

What is it you use to do the second one?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Steel wool, light it and spin it using long exposure.

 

[Ay Ay Ron]

Pretty much what Dan said although I should have bumped the ISO up a bit more though or left it for longer and illuminated the foreground.

 

[Spinksy]

nowhere near the level of you guys, or my missus or any car photographer for that matter but i like it...

and this one

Been trying my hand at a bit of bird photography lately, bloody hard work! Spotted some cool stuff (Kingfishers, Bullfinches etc) but far too quick for me. This little chap humoured me for a while though...

Nothing compared to you lot (some great pics on here btw!) but this is an iPhone pic I took of my old (weird) wallpaper reflecting off the screen of my other phone. I thought it looked cool anyway! Sorry about s**t quality!

Tha 1M is stunning. A couple I have that I thought were alright.

I like the square crop and composition of the Squirrel one, Adam; It works well. The out of focus branches frame the subject nicely too!

Have you tried it in Black and white? It could work well

 

[ukaskew]

Had to smile when I captured this one...

[DanFreemanPhoto]

lol that's a great snap!

Killing time in the hotel here in India waiting to go home.....didn't have a chance to see anything during my 5 days apart from a quick stop after work today.

 

[Hixle]

Lol at the squirrel! Awesome.

Really like the first shot Dan, the noise really works well!

 

[Matt_90]

Cool looking shots Dan just seen them pop up on your FB page, where they taken on your x100?

Yanoo - both pics are great, but the second one is awesome! Love the composition and slight vignette.

I got a passenger ride out in this beast. The cornering abilities were just silly... Needed about another 200hp for the straights though. It was almost flat out everywhere... corners included.

A rare contribution from me...

No idea why I like this one I took today, bored sat in the passenger seat of a car waving the camera about so technically and composure-wise it's no doubt utter horse s**t but I like the look of it for some reason.

 

[adele_90]

Got this one up the Wrekin in Telford, not sure if it works?

Low down and wide with that colour top on, you could have been a human 'angel of the north' !

A few from a local band I covered for on Friday night - They where meant to be on a large stage or thats what I got told, when I arrived I found them playing in a small corner of a venue with white walls and crappy lighting, not to mention the confined space

anyway I enjoyed the challenge, more of the shots here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/beaker-mlp/sets/72157632787078841/with/8483724350/

Get a flash diffuser if you can, plus point the flash straight up, or near as straight up as you can get ... :approve:

I did this lol! But got boring results, I wanted nice black stage backgrounds and colourful lighting, with smoke machines haha!
