This reminds me, I should go get a banana to snack on.

Look more like a yellow chilli pepper to me. :)

Sorry, I was asking @Susurs as I can't make his photo out.

Cheers :)

Sure. :)
I went to a rocky sea pier and rocks were covered with a yellow moss in the part where the pier stretched into the sea, and green in the part where it was still on the shore. This one was originally yellow, but I tried to apply some color filter in software.

It is less than 2 hours drive from my house so I have no excuse! Lovely shot.
[doublepost=1501782653][/doublepost]All this B&W treatment on waterfalls got me wanting to do one myself. So here is my attempt. Hope it makes the grade.

If we say it was definitely operator error, will it make you shoot and post more to prove us wrong?

If the answer is yes, then..... mate you messed this one up bad... :rolleyes:

If the answer is no.... well... just post more images OK!?!?

Great shot and conversion :)

I thought this guy was a bit of a character. Mid winter and wearing a tank top, one working headphone and completely oblivious to me with a DSLR aimed squarely at him! I liked that I was able to time him passing under the Gong Cha teahouse sign, while he's got his RedBull tank top on. Gong Cha is an international franchise teahouse with a heavily promoted healthy slant to their beverages.

OI!!! referee! yellow card!

For those who dont know, the indigenous tribes from the North East of England, in particular, those latterly known as Geordies, are famous for their lack of sensitivity to extreme cold. They can generally be found in snowy conditions in little more than a light pullover or sharp looking shirts with little more to keep them warm than a cheeky wee alcoholic beverage or five. In fact the female tribe members are often found dressed in outfits that are difficult to distinguish from underwear.

I thought you were the source! ;)

Oooft.... that is a joke I would not like to be the butt of!

We have the scruffy version of the chav up here - The Ned... scary species with a bit of an obsession with displaying their wealth through wearing Gold, casual sportswear and Burberry hats that Burberry have never actually manufactured.

We have pubs here in Glasgow that say " No Burberry " so make sure you arent wearing that nice new rain mac when trying out the local hospitality of an evening!

I was intending to encompass Northerners in general in my comments above :p

Some of the lady Chavs around this way have embraced the Manchurian ways of wearing pyjamas and fluffy slippers to the shops - that way everyone knows they've just got outta bed and don't need a job because they're working the benefits system ;)

Cheers :)

Thats a bit corny that picture... :)

Are you using a radial filter in the middle there?

I just dont understand people who have such little respect for themselves to not want to make a better life or develop personally.

I think I overdid the saturation boost, that's why I have toned it down a lot in subsequent IR shots.
That was the first time I had used that camera.

You should have a gander at www.peopleofwalmart.com. That would cover the entire US, all of them.

Are you taking pictures with a modified camera + IR, or just a filter?
It's an infrared converted camera, an old Panasonic G1.
There's a bit to do in PhotoShop etc. to get the full effect though.

Cheers :)
