[slofox]

Most of the year I don't like 'em much - they always bite. Vindictive mothers of plants - you cut 'em, bro you gunna get BIT!

[SMOKEU]

Macro shot is it?

[Maha]

Chocolate ones are ok.....turkish delight...mmmmmmmmmmm.

[slofox]

Macro shot is it?

There are times when I get quite distracted by images...

[007XX]

Yep.

There are times when I get quite distracted...


S'ok, we forgive you old fella :bleh:




(Ps: very pretty shot dear)

I like freshly mown lawns.

...i couldn't really give a toss about them...my mum was into them, my wife gets off on growing them...it's easy to become involved in them, i'm good at pruning them...doesn't mean i like them...she has so many that mean things to her that they become more than a shrub...a very good friend of mine spent his last months with us, he bought a chocolate rose with him, 'Colour Break'. It's his essence in our garden, at it's zenith...

Must be about time too - it's getting desparate if you're out looking at roses ..

[slofox]

Bike's back on the road! And I still remember how to ride it, too...just as crazy as ever before in fact. :crazy:

I'll put the camera away again now.

Have a Snickers bro'.

[mashman]

Is that a couple of bees humping in the center there?

[Oakie]

OK. So I'm a big jessie too. Here's my favourite from my garden. 'Tequila Sunrise'

[slofox]

Is that a couple of bees humping in the center there?

I think it's an aphid - probably sucking rose sap...little bastard.:angry:

[Oakie]

why does every cunt who gets a DSLR think they're a fucking photographer?!

Oh I'll bite then. Because a DSLR makes it possible for anyone with half a brain and a slight eye for a photograph to take a decent photo. (I just know I'm going to regret this. It's like Guy Fawkes. 'Light fuse and stand well back.')

Because they're taking photos? I'm not entirely sure, but I think it may or may not have something to do with it

[Banditbandit]

Who says they think they are photographers ... just takin' pictures here bro ... put them in the holiday snaps album .. and besides digital is easier than the old SLRs or TLRs ...

My camera isn't a DSLR.

'Bout time you caught up with new technology then ..

[007XX]

My camera isn't a DSLR.

DSLRs are fantastic, but they're not within everybody's financial reach.

Still, technology is such now that one can take really good pics without one of them.
I have a Fujifilm Finepix S1500 I scored on Trademe for an hundred bucks, and I'm certainly no expert, but I got some shots I'm really happy with.

I guess it depends on your personal level of expectation eh.

Probably the same reason every cunt with internet access thinks they have something interesting to say? ie human nature....

Actually - I quite like roses too - god knows we have enough of them...

But you're still a ...... :-)

Warhol said 'My idea of a good photograph is one that is in focus and has a famous person in it'.

Proficient machinery operation. The Zeitgeist lives in the subject - and that's as subjective as a meat dress.

Better ask Akzle that...he seems to know everything.

Something like this?

What makes a photographer.
1: Akzle has a green knob
2: not a DSLR
3: an aussie....end of.

ps: I had 8 goes at spelling Akzle before getting it right.
