Hey everyone. I noticed there seems to be a lot of computer media but what about good old fashioned Photography? Color, black and white - there's tons to choose from. So, here's a thread for everyone to critique and post their photographs. Enjoy and please try to critique constructively.

Thanks,
-V.

Here is some of mine:

[nota bene: both were taken in the car, while moving, so that would explain the blur.]

The sunset was brilliant... I only wish I had stopped to take a proper photo of it.

@Nightcom: Wow, did you take that?

Here's a picture I took of my frog (who recently ran away :laugh: )

A little bit of photoshopping to get rid of the date that was displayed in big red didgits in the bottom right corner.

No fancy effects, only some pics taken on vacation and in my home town. :D

I'm sorry about the crappy quality of some of the pics, they're all scanned in, so no digital pics ;). Hope you enjoy it.

Heres some of mine, they're taken with a crappy digital camera that can only reach 1.3megapixels, and that's by interpoliating! I am saving up for a better one though,

There are more photos on my website gallery (http://gallery.andrew-w.co.uk), but for some reason its decided to stop me adding new photos, so I'll post the ones from my recent holiday here:

Edit:
To reduce the loading time I have moved my photos to a page which you can see here:

Some nice pictures over there, but jesus christ, can't they be downsized to at least twice that size?! It would take a lot of time for them to load up at home, and at the office with 100Mbit the RAM isn't good enough for the page to load without probs ;)

Here's my contribution anyway.

I upload all photos that are more or less interesting to my site,
http://www.aha.ru/~diddy/photos.htm
but it hasn't been updated since June, and I have some interesting stuff stored at my comp.

And here's the pic that helped me realise how WETA Digital managed to pull off the cool shots of cities, statues and buildings that could not be built in full size. The pic's already been posted in Forum Gallery, but in fact it belongs here, I only just noticed this thread, which is a very good idea, V :)

Wow! I didn't expect there to be so many choice photographers here. Great to see the art isn't lost yet! Excellent work everyone. :)

Here are a few more sunsets:

Oh goody a photo gallery! Sorry, I haven't any B&W ones, but I figured I'd just share a couple of my coloured ones.

Please ignore the dates on the photos. I do confess that I'm a lazy old potato when it comes to adjusting the date on my cameras (especially since they're the sort that revert to the manufacture date when you change the battery/memory card).

This is still my favourite cloud photo. I took this with my digital camera en route to KL; had to do it real quick though, to avoid being noticed by the stewardesses.

Stirling Gardens, Perth. I wish we had trees and parks like these here. :)

Not a spectacular pic. But hey, I like how the swans are reflected in the water - they remind me of a Salvador Dali painting. :(

Here's a photo with a story. I went into the lab one morning to find all the girls huddled together, speaking in low voices and looking awfully agitated. One of them told me they'd found something ghastly in our premix lab, and took me to see it. Apparently they'd come into the lab that morning to find the freezer door (which is mad of glass) shattered, the way you see it in the photograph. The thing was - nobody had banged the door or anything; the door had just shattered - from the inside. Anyway, I thought it would make for an interesting photo, so I whipped out my camera and -

Awesome cloud shot KFarlander. I saw it on your site awhile back but only as a thumbnail. [The link was broken I do believe.] So, what's this about you having to watch out for the staff aboard the plane? Photo Nazis? lol...hm.

The photo of the shattered glass is rather crafty as well. Quite interesting. Definitely not something you see every day.

Here's omg more of the same sunset.

I have moved my photos to a seperate page in an attempt to reduce loading times,

Maybe others could do the same, or is there any chance of a HMF Photo gallery?

Did you ever find out what happened to the freezer window?
