Picture of the day thread (No Pic, No Post)
 

The idea here is to post a photo you've taken that you find interesting, or that you think others might find interesting.
All forum rules still apply here, and an effort should be made to find a reliable webhost for your image so that the thread doesn't lose it's significance as time goes by.

I'll shall begin:

Mt. Fuji (Fuji-san) from my kitchen window. (Actually it's covered in clouds, which is the interesting part. On a clearer day, I'll snap a shot and post it.)

McDonalds at about 11:45pm (15min before closing)

http://www.pandagarage.com/grant/taiwan/mcdonalds1.jpg

i wonder if Taiwanese McDonald's is better than Japanese McDonalds..
I'd bet yes.

Probably better that british McDonalds, taste like shit...

french mcdonalds isn't very good either. Dutch mcdonalds was actually pretty good (strangely enough)

some shots from Brazil...Rio is fucking amazing...

ritz.. those images are really weird.. unless you MEANT to have an MR2 in there.. lol
how long an exposure was that? looks like at LEAST 8 seconds... more?

I think it was six, but you could be right. I'm a picture wh0re, so if you'd like to see more. Just let me know.

http://djdorifto.sytes.net/Pictures/leon1.JPG

Am still waiting for the squeal

squeal?
a sequel may prove difficult seeing as how the lead character is dead.
That, and the premise of the movie was keep the girl safe. Making her a 'professional' will tarnish that character, as Leon's death ultimately kept her safe by freeing her from that world.

but anyhoo, one of the best movies EVAR. and a sequel with different characters or a prequel would be nice. I wish they'd explained more about Leon's past.

That is THE best Assassin movie ever. Period.

How the hell did you guys learn to take pics like all of the ones above? They are all great.
Steven

Mostly it's framing the subject, determining where you want your focus, and if it's a long-exposure shot (like the blurry one in ritz's post or any night picture where everything is clear), determining how long an exposure you need.
Essentially, I just fuck around with my camera until I get the pic I want.
I've never taken any photography courses (I wish I had, and may yet), so everything I've done is just based on me experimenting. Most digicams nowadays can take a nice shot if you frame the subject right and focus on what you want clear.

When you're going for a lack of graininess in your images, big megapixels and large lenses come into play. However, for 90% of folks out there, it can be a bit grainy and still look good.

Ha, sorry it was like 1-2 in the morning. Don't ya think it would be cool to continue the story with Mathilda and use Natalie Portman still, when she's older. but knowing writing people they'll put here in a love story where at the end she makes the choice to stay with the guy and leave her killing ways... fuck that! make her shoot the guy when she finds out he's sleeping with another girl. And have her cleaning up the city with bad cops, drug lords, stuff like that. It be a anti-hero.
didn't they say that he started when he was 17 or 19 years old? That be a good way to bring the movie back as he was just begining. I need to write a story line and give it to someone in hollywood hehe.

Sorry to be OT, everyone.
Actually, i heard an *internet rumor* that there is going to be a sequel with here. Dun some google or imdb searches and see what you can turn up.

you guys mind posting what kind of camera/lens you are using?

crioten: most of the shots i posted in this thread were taken with my Sony F828 (8.0MP, 7x zoom), but I'm sure a few you've seen (and one or two I put in this thread) were taken with my Sony DSC-S71 (3.3MP, 3x zoom).

Nice HID ears!

haha thanks !

Most normal people take pics during the day time. But I like taking them at night. :)

Makoto you're so silly. :keke:

Good stuff, Ritz! I assume you're using a tripod?

Thanks Mr

Yup.. I have a super janky tripod... I'd get a new one, but then I'd have no use for my old one. I'll just use it till it brakes or someone runs over it. The pics are "grainy" because I accidently set the ISO to 800 :doh: . I usually leave it at 100. Shutter speeds range from 1/8-3 seconds. 2560x1920 res is available upon request. Just gimmie ur e-mail.
