Now it's MY precious...
on: March 13, 2004, 03:43:42 am
After close to two years and 18000 photos on my point-and-shoot Sony 2MP digicam, I've finally upgraded - to Sandwich's camera, the Sony DSC-V1. Ahhhh, the control! With all the manual controls I have at my disposal now, I feel like for months I've been trying to run with my shoelaces tied. :)



Here's one of the first shots I took on my shiny new V1. Man, it's awesome. :nod:



So, anyone with suggestions on places to go to get some shots with a camera that can do (almost) anything? ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Cheers about the rose. Well, strictly speaking, it cost AUD$2 - but it was part of a dozen my sister got from her boyfriend. Oh, and Sandwich asked if I'd edited it - I hadn't. But I did play around with lighting a bit when I took the shot:

Thanks, guys. The tones this thing can put out... it's just breathtaking.

Heh, btw Kal, the camera cost AUD$990. Bargained down from AUD$1200. :D

I'd say whoa! except I've toggled 'no pictures' in my browser. :p  Got a name for it, Steakman?

Okay, I just took these shots outside - it's about 10pm at night. 30-second exposures... they rock so much... :)

You f00s... :p Anyway, it's too late. It's Autumn now, so the beach season is pretty much over - you'll have to wait until December, at the very least. :p
