i've been using photobucket for about 6 years and after it killed pretty much my first account on their quality wise, i've always uploaded as .png's from then on - they may have fixed the problem by now though !!

Thanks lads

I hope that the new subject throws up some interesting artistic intpretations, particuarly from within nature, as animals teaching their young can be a great subject matter, both in terms of stimulating the eyes with a fabulous array of colours and also in tugging at the heart strings by stimulating our emotions, for example a bird teaching its young to fly, as well as of course opportunities for a different type of picture such as a 18 year old A level student bending over to pick up her books in a short skirt which tends to stimulate in other ways.

Yeah but "GCSE" isnt slang for "anal sex" and 16 is too young for hardcore porn, you took my reply too literally

I'm just going to sit at the end of our road now and when a learner goes past I'm gonna flash him with my phone. Should be interesting.

Im going to get a D90 as soon as I have figured out what lens' are best for them.

So I can enter this and the ocuk photography's (theirs are amazing, but like I they love their photoshop, which leads me into my next question

Chip : What camera settings did you use to take the pic of the Escos ? I cant read EXIF data as im on linux and it doesnt even understand what a JPEG is

also worth adding it was done "car to car" at about 50mph, which is why the subject is so well focussed and the background is so well blurred, you'd struggle to get quite the same results from just panning.

i've got a few pics like that Chip, but that one really is a good'un - mine were done at 50mph, on the M5 motorway hanging out of my bro's sunroof with the camera strap around my neck just in case

Very similar to how I took mine, from Si B's evo.


This is about the best I can manage as far as a panning shot taken from a static location goes:



Thats better than most of mine come out though when panning, its very hard to get the whole car in focus, I normally end up with either the front or back blurred!
