Picture of the day...

[Plymouthbreezer]

I think we should start a club.

I'm really happy with this picture. It's one of the clearest I've taken with my camera. I can't wait to get my D80. I'll have ALOT of fun with it.

EDIT: and we should start a iMac G4 users club.

Not to digress in this thread too much, but what are you shooting with now?? I can't tell really, but it almost looks Cannon??

I love my D70s to death, and I think you'll be happy with the D80 too. But, if you have yet to buy the D80, read my recent thread about the comparison between the two cameras (in this forum)... Not to sway ya, but it might give you some insight and in turn save you a few bucks.

Personally, my next camera will be a D200, or whatever is out in a few years when I upgrade my body. The D80 - for the price - just isn't a smart move for me and my shooting style.

I'm shooting with a Fuji film S5000.
I have the choice between a XTi or a D80, but I think I'm gonna go with a D80 (or a Nikon at least, may it be D80 or D70.)

PS. The camera I'm holding the avatar, is a non-working, film Pentax.

Oh! Alright. You'll be happy with whatever Nikon you decide upon. It will be a big upgrade from your current camera.

I have a good Minolta film SLR too, which is fun. I need to get out and shoot more with that, but it's definitely fun to take a step back in time once and a while. Amazing that a 30 year old camera still can hold its own against some of todays stuff!

Here is a photo that I photoshopped (obviously ), the background just didn't go with it in color. Hope you all like it

Edit: Just as xcalibre mentioned above, in the thumbnail the color is not so rich.

Burnout, New England Summer Nationals, Worcester, MA:


Shot with NIKON D70s at 2007-07-08

I had an awesome location to shoot... I had my Police shirt on, and with a massive camera, the people let me in for free. I was shooting with two other photographers, both freelance. One was shooting with a D2Xs, and the other a 5D. Amazingly, my trusty ol' D70s was holding its own, granted I had to shoot manual to get a lot of the shots.

Plymouthbreezer... do you go to every event held in your town? Your photos always show something different - it's pretty awesome.

And when you say Police shirt, do you mean simply a shirt that says "Police", or are you a cop. If it's just the shirt, I may have to try that sometime.

Anyway, for my daily contribution I present... me.

I try and cover any big event that's close. I know people at most of the events I shoot at, so I'm never bored.

My shirt said "Worcester Police" and has a graphic of the police badge... It's an official city issue shirt, but alas, I am not a cop (plenty of family members are, thus how I obtained it), and simply a well-connected 17 year old.

Thank you for the praise, your stuff is extremely varied as well, and exactly the style I like.

I really like your picture, as well. You captured the scene, the action and the color very well.
