Lens Flair: TDU-C's Best Photos

[Speedtouch]

Something I took today. I wish I could be bothered to go out and take photos of interesting things, not rubbish pics of my neighbours chimney... :p

You should take some pictures of motorsport, you get some amazing pics.

Nice pic Dave! I like how you cropped it, and the position. ;)

Great shot Speed! That is HDR right? Very nice toning.

[Speedtouch]

^ Thanks. It is HDR, but I didn't want to overdo it, just enhance the photo a little :p

 

@ Austin Powers: Yeah, but thats kinda one reason I don't [want to]. You sit in the crowd, and get the same pics as everyone else. Sure they are nice, but they really are all the same.

 

I will hopefully go out on a photo session with a mate of mine who owns a few cars (one of which there are only 3 of in the world - he is currently refurbishing it to match the other two). That will be in the summer though, but for now, even though I live close to Brands Hatch, I don't necessarily want to go there unless I am in the pits or whatever.

What about taking pictures of karting? Since your near Brands, Buckmore Park is the closest, http://www.buckmore.co.uk.

 

Plus there's a lot of spaces for photos.

Then go during a trackday. Pit-lane is open most times and you can pretty go anywhere next to the track as you like, as there are no marshalls as far as i know. Hope this helps:

Feeling a bit down atm, so decided to go through some old photos and found this absolute gem!

 

Keith from the Morgan garage I had work experience at last summer.

 

That man knows everything about Morgans. Seriously, part numbers included. He would tell me to go and get him something from their parts bit, by giving me a 6 digit code. Great guy.

 

And I did another version of the Chimney pic, as I was converted into thinking that the HDR didn't quite work on it. I think this looks much better:

You look like that glitching driver on the side of the TDU GTR Mod :p

[TDU 505]

Thats not Jon :p

Thats another Traceur, Jon's taking the picture XD

[Iced_Bullet]

OK, well the subject of the photo looks like the bug then =)

[TDU 505]

Ahaha much better :p

Heres a picture I took about 2 months ago. Edited it a bit in Photoshop and i'm loving the result. :D

It's tilted.

Make the horizon line up and it's a real cool picture! :D

[The Queen]

Like this? ;)

Yes! Lot's better.

+rep.

[iBilo]

Erm, am I the only one not seeing any difference in the two pics?

[The Queen]

I changed it so the horizon was level instead of the land at the bottom as it looks better. ;)

[iBilo]

Ah I see now! :)

Another one I have taken a little while ago. I love this building and actually went down specifically to take some shots of it.

 

It's one of a number of Maggie's Centre's in the UK and it's a place where people suffering from cancer can go and get help with their problems.

The horizon isn't right agan mate! The tower looks like the one from Pisa, you don't want that :D

[iBilo]

I love you David!

[Speed]

Hmmm, I recognise that tower picture, isn't it the one you put as the reflection in your lens of a picture of you?

Yup thats the one. It was a photoshopped image though so not exactly realistic. :p
