Random Photothread XXI Do not quote pictures 800 pixels longest side See OP for updat

Calina

This thread is for random pictures of random things in random places by random people - so basically this is the place for random photographs. The photographs should be your own work; when we say random, we mean that there's no set theme, and no provision for C&C, for example.

Welcome newbies... Always great to see you moving away from lurking to taking part - we won't bite (eh... too often).

No expectation of quality or content. It's for everyone. This thread exists because it is good to share Please familiarise yourself with the rules before posting.

A little discussion is allowed but don't enter into debate as the thread is intended mainly to show photographs.

Thread rules [Please Read] NB - IMPORTANT STUFF NEXT

* General Charter Rules Apply

* All images must be 800 pixels or less on the longest side. Any posts with images which break this rule will be deleted.

* No Quoting Images - Please don't include the original picture in your reply to a post.

* Making your picture a link to the page it's hosted on flickr or pix.ie or elsewhere is both handy for us nosy lot to find the rest of your stuff, and also generally considered the polite thing to do by the image host. Indeed for some including pix.ie and flickr, it is a condition of using their service.

* No arguments. Self explanatory really.

* If you have a disagreement with a photo, use the report post feature - don't go abusing the poster.

* Try keep to one or two images per post. Then allow some more people to post, then feel free to post again. Do this as often as you like!

The most important rule: Enjoy and have fun.

If you find yourself on the wrong side of these rules, prepare yourself for your post to be deleted, or if you've been feicing around repeatedly, prepare yourself for break from the forum.

If you do actually read this then please hit the thanks button - not that i'm so vain as to want a post of mine thanked - but as a little social experiment as to who actually reads the opening post on the thread, heheheh....

Thank you.

Great facial expression Daire and really nice bokeh too.

Here's my first stab in the dark at IR photography:



Since the sun decided to bugger off just as my new filter arrived I had to improvise ...

Happy enough with it though, considering the only source of light was an old electric bar-heater in the living room!

It's interesting this IR lark. Learning more about photoshop than anything else though. Come back sun!

amazing tones in that shot daire, i saw some that must be from the same roll in the previous random photothread and they were equally awesome

i've been playing around with a selective focus technique in photoshop and love how it's working!

I did a "fashion" shoot with some friends today in a car park. There was a Porsche. We couldn't resist a shot with it

(Don't worry, we took GREAT care not to damage the paintwork / bonnet! Also the license plate no. has been changed.)

very dark caves = very disappointing photos

Haha, not at all, I just thought people might be concerned we were damaging other people's expensive property! Plus the model is a good mate of mine, tough as nails - no need to worry about her
