Photography thread!

Oh! That was Canada customs, entirely different!

I take it back!...

 

Some photos from the Barber Vintage Festival in 2011.


































I think this last one really showed the limits of the lens I used.

 

Yep, everyone seemed to be different. I one tell me she loved my Suomy helmet, I wore my roadrace helmet, purple with flowers. Coming back into Canada near Beaver Creek my buddy pulls up and immediately starts getting crap for pulling up before the light turned green. I had pulled away so he rolled up. Well my buddy is kind of a smart ass and the guard starts telling him he could be arrested. My buddy says Ok, but is it alright if I, pointing to me taking pictures, of him getting cuffed? Third guy pulls up as the second pulls away, there's no one else within miles. So he starts giving the third guy a hard time, didn't you see the light, no I didn't, window was open so I pulled up. Did you have something else to do? Next stop was Haines and the guys went all in for us.
When I took my wife a couple years ago she wanted her passport stamped, gal at beaver creek area stamped it, got to the station outside Haines and he told her no, it wasn't allowed.

 

If anyone's interested, Nikon has a number of online digital photography classes available on-demand. They just announced they're going to make 10 of their most popular classes available for free, to keep people occupied during all of this. LINK

 

Nice work Robin

 

That's a pet that got out. Should've checked the tags on its' collar and took it home.

 

Thanks. Pure guesswork on the speed/aperture setting. I was using a 200mm lens I bought in the 70's that I've used on numerous film SLR's. It's obviously manual focus but I just set it on the largest aperture and then set the speed and aperture on the camera.

 

Strange how our ability to reason gets muted in order to 'get the shot'' sometimes. Here's the most stupid shot I have taken. About 3 miles deep in the woods.

 

Not at the level of you all, but these are some of the photos I've enjoyed taking.

 

That's some good work Montoya! The head of the first snake looks a little strange. I didn't see what you saw. What is it?
Also what is the second snake? I recognize it's venomous but not sure of type

 

It's a vine snake, can't recall the specific type, their fangs are in the back of their mouth. Had a trail guide pick it up and actually got struck in the hand, not long after that picture, he did have to head to a hospital. Second snake is an eyelash pit viper, was right at the edge of a hiking trail. All of those pictures are from the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica.

 

Great shots.

 

A few with the drone:

 

Reminds me of a road near Donner Lake.

Man, this thread is making me really take a second look at being lazy and only taking my phone with me where I go. . .GREAT SHOTS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!

 

Had a big moray I was trying to get photos of swim between my camera and my BC, just let him do his thing and he swam back into the coral head.

Still can't believe they didn't have proper means of detecting a fire in there. So they say it's going to take 5 years to rebuild it, and that's using modern technology. That it took roughly 80 years to build most of the original structure, that's not bad using hand tools.
