So the pipe for our filtered water burst on Christmas eve, and this was the result, a fantastic wall of ice:

Link 1

Some of the shapes were class. Anyone see two birds here?

Link 2

This is what formed on the ground. There were little spheres on the sheet of solid ice all the way for about 3 metres away from filter thing. They looked kinda like little mushrooms.

Link 3


The pictures don't really do the thing justice at all, it was absolutely nothing like anything I'd seen before.


Edit: Those pictures were a whole lot bigger than I thought. Sorry! I just put them in links instead

Very typical western landscape in the first photo there... Fir tree plantations everywhere. My parents absolutely hate them but I cant imagine the place without them and kind of like them.

Yeah, there's a huge plantation just across the road, there's actually a "fairy fort"(ring fort) in the middle, they wouldn't plant any trees on it because of the whole curse thing about them, it's still there about a mile in and it's really eerie.
You actually get paid if you let them plant some on your land.:eek:

My neighbour did it a few years ago and they cut a path through it when it was still young, was so awesome to walk through.

A couple of photos my dad took that I thought were pretty cool:





^ Mist and massive icicles = evil looking house. And that random brown splodge, well that's malevolence epitomized.

Woof.

Theres a village near me where every year they have a rave in the middle of a plantation, I went last summer it was class.... Hundreds of people dancing in a forest clearing

Heres a photo from last winter of the view from the hill behind my house....

I have snow pictures to post but have to upload to my computer first.

Pigwidgeon

Was sick for most of this snow, but these first are from the first batch at the end of November.

@ Monzo, that 2nd picture looks amazing, it creates a strangely eerie atmosphere :P

I'll just stick to a link for now. The original is waaaaay to big.

Have been going through old photos (08/09) that i'd have looked over at the time...

Considering the subject matter, I'm not expecting them to be to everyones taste!

It's a bit bleak in terms of the content but I really love this photo for some reason.

Kind of reminds me of some of Edward Burtynsky's stuff! Sehr gut!:)

I haven't been compelled to pick up my camera recently at all but during work experience I tried my hand at a bit. Heavy-handedly edited but it probably reflects my recent mood a bit.

Pimping some awesome photos my brother took a while ago:








The last one is my favourite. He says they were taken in Trás-os-Montes in northern Portugal. Yes, my brother did get all of the talent. Also I really want to visit him now, Portugal looks gorgeous.

2nd and 3rd look like HDR. Meaning, the sky was unlikely to look like that.

They're all HDR, albeit quite tastefully done and not very overcooked like usual

Everyone's ignoring my old thread-rules.

And now I'm powerless to stop them!

Is that back-seat modding I can smell? >.>

/shakes ban hammer

Although if people could keep it to maybe 3 photos per post that'd be swell? I find one isn't always enough and I know I don't want to be constantly multi-posting and clogging up the whole thread.

Shamelessly plagiarized from the above post.

EDIT: If Mark, or anyone else for that matter, has any problem with this, I won't hesitate to take this down. A quick pm is all that is needed.

I sometimes take picture's on the family digital camera for teh lulz.

Try figuring this one out! (No after effects were used.)



Some really great pictures in this thread, which mine don't have a patch on.

Cherry Blossom Girl

I take too many flower pics..







Edit: Agnostic Mantis, your second picture is really annoying me, I can't figure it out! What's your sekkrit?

(Spooky greyscale goodness)

Did you take a photo of a really reflective window? Or did you put the camera on a tripod while using a really long exposure, so you could capture one scene for a few seconds seconds and then spin the camera around to capture something else for the remainder? Looks amazing anyway, whatever you did! Really eerie and ghostly.

And just to respect IO's old rules, here's a really old photo! 'Tis meself, being, er... handy with the aul' camera*.



Also, party in my gaff! This one's ancient, an entire hair-"style" ago.



*NOTE: Banjo Fella does not claim to actually be handy with or to even possess a tiny bit of knowledge about how to use cameras. He can barely work the "auto" setting, and even then, he might manage to accidentally crop someone's arms off in the process... and not just out of shot.

I shall reveal my amazing, stupendous secret. I'm standing outside my patio-door, looking in through my house towards the front window, so my kitchen looks like it's on the outside and my garden looks like it's on the inside. I disguised the camera by placing it in line with the front window, making the two partitions in the front window my eyes, because I thought it was funnay lukin'. The only effect on the camera was the black and white. I know extremely little about cameras, other than how to fiddle about with them. So it all looks a bit inside-out, boy you turn me, upside down or something....Eat your heart out Christopher Nolan.

Love the second one, it looks like a unicorn. Where was it taken?

And did it naturally come out that silhouetted or was the burn tool involved?

:pac: That's what 2 other's said, It was taken in the Cooley mountains, we were just walking and it appeared beside us.


It was slightly silhouetted so I messed with the Gamma in Levels in PS and burned a bit and converted to b&w.
