Here are a couple, but I am having a hard time photographing a black bike.. In the shadows - exposure is hard, in the sun shadows screw it up. I need perfect evening light I guess. Anyway:




The frame's a 58 roadie from Performance and my friend set it up for me. I call it the "cheater fixie" because now it has a Shimano 8 speed planetary rear hub. In 5th it's 1:1 so you can just leave it there, but the others are soooo nice for the hills and stuff around here. I really like the bullhorn style bars and will prolly end up with some, but these are an old carbon MTB set we shortened to fit and I really like it.

 

it looks great! i was wondering what was going on with your rear hub from your first picture we should do an i-club ride sometime.

yeah I already ordered my k20d. I thought it might be announced today, but wasn't sure if they'd wait till photokina. Curious about the new sensor, but im happy with my choice, screw it. At the very least the k20 is really comfy to hold (better than any other body IMO)

You stuff is a lot nicer than mine. heh. Nice work.

damn those car shots are awesome, shieet. I want to capture some action like that.

 

it's all about what you're happy with. if you're not happy with it, you won't use it as often and the work will show.

thanks for the comments...i was just lucky to be at the right place at the right time.

 

 

love the couple in the car effect.

It was fun doing that v-dub pic. It made me realize how much equipment I need. Great work to ya.

 

or I can use www.dr5.com you can have them develope the film and put the photos on CD at 2000x3000 pixels for $17, 1000x1500 for $13, or 400x600 for $9 for 35mm film.

so what cameras should I look at if I want to dabble in 120 film? freestylephoto.biz has some $30 cameras, but I doubt those are that great of quality

 

17 bucks a roll for 6mp?! i thought we were expensive at 11 bucks.

what's your budget for 120? holgas are fun as to not knowing what you'll get. there's a lot of used 120 cameras out there at bargain prices. check out yashicamat TLR cameras. i know a couple people that uses them, and they seem to love it. can be used as a chick magnet as well

 

hmmmm, I'll have to look into one of those once the credit cards are paid off completely.

I think I'm going to get one of the Holga's from Freestyle in the meantime, sounds like a fun little camera

 

how do you take those panoramic pictures? Is there a program that integrates a series of horizontal pictures?

 

just be careful with 120s because they can get quite expensive to shoot. just imagine paying the same price for a holga and you only get 5 rolls of cheap 120 film. might not seem like a lot, but you can only get 12 shots for 6x6 format from one roll.

here's some holga shots from your backyard:

Photoshop CS3 (the newest version of Photoshop) has an auto stitch feature, but you could manually stitch them with any software, but it'd take a long time.

thanks for the heads up. I was trying to see what shipping costs are like from freestyle but then their site went down again.
