Random Photos : Part 3

Torch shot is fantastic

I managed to realise a childhood dream yesterday, when a beautiful 25th Anniversary Lamborghini Countach entered the studio. Had a model car of these since a very young age, such an iconic car!

You can't fully appreciate it until you see it in the metal:

I think I was stood behind you at some point. I remember seeing an image like your first one on the LCD of a camera in front of me. I got some poor shots that day. Broken washing machine meant I couldn't really justify renting a lens (100-400mm was gonna be about £100 for the weekend) and so all I had was something that can go to 50mm max. Even with spot metering and spot AF on the center point the camera wouldn't expose right because the aircraft didn't even cover the spot! Got it dialed in eventually (+1 1/3 EV) but now have to take massive liberties with the crop tool! Went to the torch relay on campus this Tuesday and have definitely decided I need something with more reach for my camera bag before I buy anything else!

I was in the Airforce monthly enclosure? Pretty much the only female in there with a camera? I did struggle a lot, thought I would do better with my 300 but going to rent a 500 next year after seeing some mates images. And well I get a bit excited around noisey planes so was struggling to concentrate. These were a quick play after the pub last night so will make some proper effort to edit tonight.

Perhaps it wasn't you then! I was slumming it in the cheap seats to the right of the tents at the front. There was a guy in front of me with that exact shot on his LCD though! Heh wrong place and wrong gender lol. Missed the typhoons run, I heard that the pilot did pretty much the whole shebang with the afterburner on. I bet that was loud!

Yeah was very loud, between the air noise and the fact I was stood next to the Breitling enclosure where all the pilots were I am amazed I was still standing.

This was my favourite bit though by far..

Couple of monos, from opposing extremes of architecture.

Kiasma, Helsinki. Contemporary art gallery. Old shot I finally got around to processing



Local disused site. Went on a daytime scouting mission to explore if it was worth returning to at night: possibly, but not alone!
