Lets play the Photo Location Game!

[Google [bot]]

This game has potential for perfect excuses for random drives, let's not cheat.

Not accusing anyone BTW.

I'd have been out clock-seeking if it weren't for Friday lunchtime beer requirement.

So a clock is finding hard to prove, how about a wet clock?




thought this would of taken off!

[Zerotonine]

Car: Yep.
Clock: Well, time on my ipod showing, that is a clock, technically!

Bright city lights in background with a can of Birds Custard on top.

[superlightr]

like it. Got me hooked.....

[Zerotonine]

I hope this takes off, it has potential to be epic.

[Waugh-terfall]

This needs to become epic.

Quietly awaiting the city lights and custard challenge to be completed as I am unable to complete it so.

Totally agree that it could be an epic thread in the making, just he everyone keeps the locations realistic.

[madbadger]

I think all future locations should include custard.

[Waugh-terfall]

Spare a thought for those of us who don't use custard powder...

Nobody uses custard powder, it isn't the Blitz anymore!

ETA. Here's a picture you can print out and take with you just in case!

That would do.

Can I make a suggestion? Every photo must have a peice of paper, with a hand written time stamp on it.
Bit of a pain yes, but better than getting everyone just going through their old photos.

Nobody does, it's now just made in job lots for the PH shop.

I Agree.

As someone who plays with a camera on a regular basis, and studied the subject for several years, might I suggest that the vast majority of people taking part won't be able to capture the time stamp and/or anything else in detail simultaneously. Especially those using phones.

[Rob282828]

Well in that case why don't we give guidance to the non-camera people? It's simple really, set the aperture to a higher number and that's it; and if your camera's not got an aperture priority mode then i would advise you to get a better camera or just use your phone instead. Hopefully that's good enough, so why can't we do it then?

I am 100% up for the latest challenge,just got to wait for darkness [city lights]

and buy some custard of some sort.

If someone beats me to it,i will post it anyway

[p4cks]

What about something specific about every car in the thread. Such as the driver's window must be half open?

I'd imagine a lot will be done with a Point & Shoot or a phone, and I don't think many will buy a new camera just to learn to fiddle around and try to work it. Have you ever tried to take a picture of some writing on paper from any distance? It's not just a case of aperture and working lighting, sometimes you just can't see it.

We've been absolutely fine without so far, and it's just a bit of fun, so if it 'ain't broke, don't fix.
