Roshambo.........I like your pics. I think you and I have the same tastes in picture taking. What kind of camera do you use?
I use a Sony DSC 505v digi 3.3 megapix.


Here's one in an old cemetry:

One by a mountain near my house:

<img src="http://www.iroczdesigns.com/images/6.jpg">


and one by an old country road


<img src="http://www.iroczdesigns.com/images/5.jpg">


New one at dusk with 505v
<img src="http://www.iroczdesigns.com/Links/1028.JPG">

Only the first picture was taken with the 505v. The other two were taken with my old digi camera. Wow..you can really tell the difference between a good digi camera and a bad one.....but you also need to know how to take good pics and what speed settings to take at.

Hey Mike.........we need to meet up so I can take some nice pics of your car! The paint job looks good! You should put a link to that old pic I took of your car when it was the other color!

Ummm,....go to www.camarobay.com to see when the next meeting is.

Thank you. Your pics a quite cool also!

I work as a photographer/reporter for a newspaper so the photography skills help! Those pics were taken with 3 different Digicams.. my first camera was used to take the first pic on the mountain, it was a Polaroid PDC700.. no zoom or anyhting, really basic camera but I loved it, until it went for a swim!

Right now Im using my works digital Olympus 600L SLR.. its alright, but Im counting the days until I get my new camera, a Mavica FD92 (kind of a Christmas present to myself) *flips off UPS*

Keep the pics coming guys

You have to find a site to host your pics. I find webshot.com works well. Then just click on the IMG button above and copy and paste the url of the pic.

adam,
Is that an actual reflection of your car in the water, or is it photoshopped?

If that is an actual reflection, then I must say that you have my vote for the best picture up here so far!


Actually.......i answered my own question.......after more investigating......it looks to be photoshopped..............oh well.
It's still a nice pic.

Tommy

I don't think my pics do my car justice but they'll have to do for now. They make the paint job look a different color. (almost looks silver)

I finally got th 35mm out, the polish and wax and took some very nice high grade photos before the engine went poop.

Anywayz, since the engine is in the drive way while i figure out what made it go poop, I'll have to get the roll of film developed and I'll post my pics ASAP.

Good news is, the engine problem isn't as bad as we thought, may need new tranny, eck



<< PS: My lil guy is like holy $hit man!

Here's a few I snapped around the neighborhood. The first was taken with a Canon A-1 w/ 120mm telephoto. The other two were taken with a Sony Mavica FD-83. If there was some way to hook a decent telephoto to the Mavica, it'd one badass digicam...
