a bit of a laugh really. no photoshopping, no touch ups....enjoy. some very long exposures here...around 15 seconds and some fun tricks, but nothing has been manipulated on a computer (except adding the border of course)

for full size, click me and click on each pic to find a link that says "full size media" above the pic for the super size.

i threw this one too...took it a while ago.

Very nice indeed.

WHen I bought my first camera 20 some years ago, I used to love doing night shots out in the country; moonscapes, long exposures of cars travelling down the lanes, etc, and your pic's kind of reminded me of those.

Thanks for sharing them with us.

I LOVE that 2nd one!!!
in fact, they're all good!

ScottyB · Jun 19th, 2004, 12:21 PM

Excellent as always hafid

Me too, I love that second one!!

marrsbar · Jun 19th, 2004, 12:26 PM

Makes me want to dig my camera out and have another go at it. I was always pants though....

I'll probably have another go and get really angry cause I can't do it....

Look out for a mint condition Canon SLR camera on eBay.

They have got to be some of the best shots i have seen.

Superb

marrsbar · Jun 19th, 2004, 12:26 PM

PS

Fantastic pictures fella.

DarkMiniCooperS · Jun 19th, 2004, 12:28 PM

Those are great shots!

Good work and very good subjects!

Keep motoring!

Tigger, Eeyore & Roo · Jun 19th, 2004, 12:44 PM

These night photos are stunning. I used to spend time doing this (20 years ago!) and I was happy with the results then, but they were nothing like this.

Looks like I've found my new wallpaper.

Youre website is great too mate. Particularly liked My 1/4 Life Crisis. Reminded me of Thom Yorks CD cover scribbles and bits I've read by Noam Chomsky

Dogtanian · Jun 19th, 2004, 03:25 PM

Absolutely awesome. Are you a pro?

I feel quite inspired to have a go myself

Cheers

Superb shots ... keep up the great work.

MINILLA · Jun 19th, 2004, 04:29 PM

Your photos are wonderful. Can you share some tips with other MINI owners who might want to try similar shots? Were they taken with a digital camera? or a SLR? Film speed? exposure time? type of camera? Settings? etc. You have a great skill which we would appreciate you

sharing so that at least we can try the mechanics of the process --- as to the artistic interpretation you display in your photos that will take a lot of practice for most of us!

jordan · Jun 19th, 2004, 04:34 PM

as i said on NAM cool pics like your MCS!!

minionefun · Jun 19th, 2004, 05:03 PM
